Hopelessly lost looking for calbolt blue

I'm trying to find a bluing agent called "calbolt blue". It comes in different numbers of shades ranging from "#2, #4, & #12". If you could help me with this situation, I would appreciate a lot. Have not used this bluing agent in about 2 years.

I'm sure that one of the problems is that you're mispelling it on your searches, Lee. It's gotta be "cobalt blue".

Call "Arlington Arms" in Arlington, I have used them for gunsmithing many times and they have what you need. It's the biggest gunsmithing store around.
