For unique extreme anodizing jobs, the companies that come to mind are:
PK Selective (duh, they did the X-Mags)
Anotech (atmf.com)
Uncle David
Crazy Ivan

Finding someone to do it is one thing. Finding a timeframe and price that suits you is a whole other bag. Don't be shocked if you get a quote of $300 if you want turnaround under two months.

I would send Max a picture of steel rats gun since it has high quality pictures of shark attack and they could most likely pull it off. Maxanodizing.com is the url i believe, they are great at doing anythingl.

Or, even better, just BUY my gun, send it in with yours, and tell them to duplicate it ;)

Yes you could do that....i <3 your gun. But if you want the real anno max can pull it off if you give them examples like steelrats pictures of his gun which are major h0tt

Shhh, im trying to sell my gun here! BUT, if he needs pics, he is free to use them, and I can try to take better ones if needed. Anything to help a mag shooter ;)

I would if I could! I should be getting a $4500 stipend paid out to me in the next week or two, so you might be hearing from me. I'm surprised Tob2be doesnt want that beauty!

He wanted to, but then he dropped off the face of the earth, so its fair game now.

Also, I want to get my X-Valve anod as well. Who did the ano on that green/light green acid y-gripped mag? That one had the valve done. In terms of keeping my warantee, I could really care less. I just want the valve anod. :D

I believe hills, ah167, or whatever his username is had it done too. He never posted pics or status after his was done. Barry/Vangogo at XPB did the reanodize and made no guarantees.

But as you pointed out, its an AGD product. The specs are pretty tight to start out with. I had no noticeable difference in performance after recoloring. Barry did a decent job of blocking off the valve internal passages. So if the efficiency or consistiency was altered slightly I don't know. It still shot smooth as butter with a ULT and thats all I cared about. And to spend over $200 for anodizing and not match up the valve just seems a waste.

My take in recoloring was like using a micromag or omega rail. For the most part it should work, but the specs might not be as tight as AGD quality anymore. And of course it depends if you can replace $300 for a valve if it becomes functionally useless from the process.

Getting off the stainless steel powertube from the aluminum valve was a pita. :mad:

Thanks for the suggestion! I am always at a loss for other places aside from A+ and PK. Looks like I have finally found a place that specializes in PB ano. Thanks again!
