I have a 1911 project I am working on that should be finished in about a month. When I get done I would like to have the frame and some of the parts hardchromed.

Is there anyone in Utah that provides this service? Preferrably in the Ogden or Salt Lake area.

I'd give Joe at FBMG a call or PM. 801-571-1160.

We don't do it in-house but can hook you up. If you have the time stop in and talk to Larry. He has the contact for it.

I used to use Tripp research but they no longer do hard chrome. http://techplate.com/firearms.htm is who Paul Liebenberg uses; if there is anyone I would trust to know who does good hard chrome it would be Mr. Liebenberg.

Here is a list of others that do hard chrome:
Metaloy
APW Cogan
Fords Guns
Robar
Techplate
Metalife
Rebel
Black T (coating) - 601-939-74488
Elite Custom Guns
Bear Coat

Thanks for the list but I need someone local if possible due to the high cost of shipping. Last project I did cost $100 round trip.

No one does it locally. There is significant requirements in equipment, space, and expertise involved beyond what a gunsmith typically does. Even the biggest shops send their guns out.
