Find a local plater if at all possible and call them. I used to be in the Polishing and Plating business 30 years ago and since it is such a small job, most likely they will charge T&M (Time and material. I would estimate 60-80 bucks, based on set up time necessary. It's a job that requires less than 1 hour's actual time but first, you would need to prep the sight by polishing, clean, wire it up and set it in the solution for plating. The most time consuming part would be removing the powder coating that Ruger puts on it's rear sights. If you are looking at having the front sight done, the cost will be about double, assuming that you had somebody remove the sight from the barrel and ramp. If you don't do that, don't even try to plate it.

I used premium gold paint on the sighting surface of the front sights on my adjustable sight .32s. Looks great and has been on for nine months. When it wears or dulls it is easy to remove and repaint.

I've seen work done by Mose and Bella Spencer on sights and even other gold plating work on pistols and I must say, it is a professional job and indeed, looks great.

+1 for Mose and Bella.

 

Honey and I both had the sights on our Rugers gold plated last year at the Ohio State Shoot. It is truly a professional job and works great!

Mose did Longbranch Kitty's guns and they are really special. Cylinder flutes are plated as is hammer, trigger and front sight.

We will are scheduled to be at the Texas State Match as long as WWWWWWWOrk :angry: does not get in the way. We will be at Comin At Cha for sure, but will only be doing sights by appointment since we are again going to be cooking at the MOSEIJUANNA GRILL :lol: . We would love to shoot all of the TEXAS 3 Steps unfortunately we have to work during the Raid on Fort Parker which is a match I was really looking forward to.
