The majority of the work is Bluing and general clean up of the metal, I have cleaned up the guns myself, but have been unsuccessful at re bluing the bare spots of metal

You can try cold bluing the bare spots, and do it yourself. If it does not work to your satisfaction, the alternative is rebluing the entire part.
This will of necessity cost more. Alex at Calgary Shooting Centre does both hot and cold bluing.
