PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY:
If you see the word REFIN or REFINISHING used in any of our pricing tables, next to, or conjoined with a column, or part, it means a small sum is added to refinish the part after the gunsmith has done the necessary filing, stoning,  grinding, buffing, welding or sawing. 

Obviously when metal is removed or reworked some cosmetic changes have to take place to restore the part to match what it's supposed to be which is the final delivered finish after metalworking is done. 

Our Minimum Shop Charges of thirty dollars includes written estimates.  Our Minimum Handling Charge is $8.00.gOn all the newer S&W, Taurus and similar firearms with combined lock type integral safeties, their will be a $25.00 dollar surcharge to plate, repair, assemble and disassemble these products.
