Any forum vendor or member’s company doing Parkerizing?

[Amanda4461]

I am looking for someone to take my stripped down lever action parts and Parkerize them. Receiver, barrel, mag tube, bolt. Everything except, hammer, trigger, springs and sights.
I have removed the rust pitting and polished the metal as needed.
Can anyone provide the name of a Vendor or a member who does Parkerizing?
If Bluing or Cerakote are the only option, are either as durable as Parkerizing?
Thanks for the help!

It ain't that hard to do if you wanna give it a try yourself

Not a member or vendor but he's well known within the M-1 Garand hobby.

2nd this. I used to do it on the gas grill. Not hard. For black/grey you want magnesium solution, for the greenish military kind of hue you want zinc solution. A tank big enough for the barrel and mag tube may take some funds, but all of the parts can be done together in that one tank.

Well,
If I manage to screw it up, a bead blast will get me back to square one🙊
