OP cherry bomb Sidelock Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 247	Does anyone have a good source for coil compression springs for gunsmithing that are not chromium or nickle plated? I'm looking for springs with brown or grey colors from heattreatment, not modern looking shiny ones. Mc Master has a complete listing of different wire sizes, diameters and lengths but they're all shiny plated ones. Thanks.
