Mike, Thanks for the link. Have you done it with these products, happy with the end result? I need to do 2 M1A receivers that came poorly done from the factory (JRM/ARMSCORP) I'm down with ordering and giving it a go, anyone else with some feedback on DIY. Thanks, David. |

I've used the stuff that Lauer sells and it works really good and is easy to use. link Here is some good info on how to do it. I didnt use the blackening solution on the ones that I did cause I didnt want them to be that dark. Here is my FAL that I did with the Lauer solution. The upper reciever was factory done.

Parkerizing isn't really difficult, it just takes attention to detail to get good results. Looks like eastky's FAL is a great example of how good a gun can looked when the person doing the parking is paying attention. If you plan to do only two receivers, then it's probably not cost effective to buy a park setup. I'd recommend farming out the work to one of the 'smiths well known for park work, such as Mark "gunplumber" Graham at Arizona Resonse Systems. Parking a bare receiver shouldn't set you back too much. |
