Cerakoting

[BPDKar98k]

When I purchased my Geissele Mk14 the only color available at the time was black. I really wanted DDC but alas, that didn't happen. I was thinking of having the rail cerakoted in something close to DDC. I wanted to know how much something like this would cost and if somebody could give some recommendations on some reputable cerakoting services.

My local certified Cerakote applicator charges around $13 an inch for handguards. Customized work will vary the price.

Thanks. I'm thinking I'd probably just be better off selling the black rail and picking up a DDC. My handguard is 13". At $13 an inch I'd be paying over half of what a new handguard would cost.

That's what I would do.. Get another HG. As far as the $13 an inch price... Can you imagine how time consuming it is to properly prep and spray all of the nooks and crannies on a handguard? I am not defending his price but around here legitimate landscape contractors bill $60 per man hour.

Try contacting Jason at Androcorp . They do god work and have solid pricing. I believe much cheaper than 13$ an inch and its quality. I think Right to Bear does it now as well No experience with their cerakote, but have placed many trouble free orders with them

Sell it and buy the color you want. You may take a 50 dollar hit but that's still much better then trying to cerakote something and hoping you get a quality job. I would also prefer the factory finish unless you are trying to go for a complete custom job.

Righttobear offers this service on outbound items. I am kicking myself for not spending the extra $40 to get my 8” rail coated. Just didn’t want to lose the BCM lettering at the time. I email asking if I could send it back to be coated and it was a no go.

So if you are buying new and want a one stop shop, try RTB.
