I checked the EE under services first- worthless as expected.  Anyone in SC do small parts- like a slide stop/release for a 1911.  While I'm probably capable of doing it (I've done Duracoat and others two part paints), I don't feel like dropping $50 to buy the kit to do one small part and I'd rather support a SC firearms business.

ETA- Middle of the state, but obviously I can drop it and the original (to color match if possible) in an envelope and ship.

Leave me alone. I’m a libertarian. ARFCOM GD hates everything so don't freak out if you catch grief for what you like. Unless you like AKs, then GFY.

Handgun small parts are listed as $20 and they're closer- think I'll check them out first.  Thanks for the multiple recommendations.

Bro, I would love to help you out, we Cerakote pretty much every day in my shop. The downside is that we are a fair distance from you, I am all the way up in Fountain Inn.

Wow, blast from the past.  Sending you a PM.

The only extended slide releases I can find are stainless, everyone has been out of blued and the one on the gun is black anyways, so I need to one.  Guess I'll jump on that.

3D cerakote is the one I couldn't find the card on. He Cerakoted some Sig parts for me and did a good job at a decent price. Give him a try. He works out of a shop in his backyard.

Recommendations  for good coat company in the Low Country would be appreciated as well.

Darlington Gun Works does fantastic work, and can do cerakoting and traditional hot bluing on par with old school Colt guns.
