Restoration Done Right: No Shortcuts, No Soft Edges

At RGS Restorations, we don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach. Every firearm that comes across our bench carries a distinct history, and we tailor every level of refinishing to match your specific goals—whether that means a full period-correct restoration or an authentic factory-style reblue.

  • 40+ Years of Bench Experience: Deep metallurgical knowledge, precise metal prep, and sharp edge retention—never rounded lines or washed-out roll marks.

  • Complete In-House Metal Finishes: Specialized in authentic Hot Bluing, Slow Rust Bluing, Carbonia Bluing, Parkerizing, and Color Case Hardening.

  • Nationwide Mail-In & Local Service: Convenient drop-off for Wisconsin gun owners and secure, direct shipping workflows for clients across the country.

Don't hesitate to contact us about your firearm project or restoration. We're always happy to hear from you!
