First thing a bike painter does is a full bare metal inspection. Someone who coats pistols has no idea what to look for. When I get frames painted basic alignment is an included service. Very much doubt that a gun shop would have a frame table. I could go on. Frame painting is a real specialty service. It is not just applying miscellaneous coatings.
