Hello, anyone know where I can get a cold blueing kit for a shotgun? I've seen them on the internet but the shipping is ridiculous. Thank you, Josh

Shipping is ridiculous because it can only be shipped UPS Ground. I carry a couple of Birchwood/Casey kits that would work for you, but in order to make the purchase worthwhile, you'd have to add another item or two to your order.

Get your cart over $125 and UPS shipping is free.
You might also check places like Dick's Sporting Goods, Gander Mountain, etc locally (where are you located?)

You might try Bass Pro Shop near the Richmond Coliseum.

Well, there's a Bass Pro north of Richmond on I-95 in Ashland. I thought the one near the Coliseum was still open as well.

Bob Moates Sports Shop carries it I think. Kinda of drive just for blueing so I'd go with AIG.

FYI: Cold bluing is really best only for touch ups. If you are refinishing the firearm, consider paying a professional for a hot blue finish.
