    Anyone know of a place that would sandblast a build of mine? I built an AK years ago and just left the receiver bare. So the barrel and receiver are in “in the white”. I recently pulled it out of my safe and decided to give it a rattle can paint job with some Epoxy Paint.

    I was hoping to get it sandblasted to make the paint job a little easier but i don’t know of any place that would do it. I know of some spots that do great Cerakote work but I’d like to try and pull this off on the cheap.

    Any recommendations for a good spot or even some alternatives?

    Second on the harbor freight route. I bought this on impulse for $13 on sale. Had to modify mine a little inside to get it to feed smoothly but overall worth every cent. Harbor freight also sells media at a decent price. I am using it with a 20 gal air compressor for small car parts, but you could probably get by with something even smaller if you only blast for a few seconds at a time.

    Might know a place in parkville that could do it for you if you don't go the diy route. Let me know if you're interested and I can ask them about it tomorrow when I see them.
