Re-Stocking
At Wright's, we use one of five different bluing processes to achieve the best possible results.  Two of these processes are the same that were used by Winchester. Below is a sampling of our pricing for both wood and metal restoration.  All of our work is done by hand and NOT on a  buffing wheel.  Buffing wheels can round edges, flare holes, and distort numbers and lettering.  That is why we do our work by hand.
