For pure looks, your eye is king. But if you are refinishing for function I don't think blue is better than the what's already on the rifle.
I don't have a VEPR but the Saiga I've got has a pretty good finish, paint over Parkerize. One would probably have to go to one of the new, expensive coatings to better it. |

blue/black oxide looks good over a glass bead job...a nice matte finish. i've done several of my pieces like this because it is easy.
blue/black doesn;t provide much corrossion resistance, but it looks good. |

How about Van's bluing? I use it, and it works well. Pretty easy.

I was actually going to send it to a guy in Pennsylvania that I used a long time ago.
Ron Mahovsky Metalife Industries.His price to Blue over glassbead is $75.I was also thinking about Hard Chroming the Bolt and Carrier. He did a Winchester 94 for me about 10 years ago and it still looks just as good as the day I got it from him. |
