I would be very careful and suggest you not attempt to fire blue/re-straw some of those parts - especially springs - if you don't know what you're doing. Those colors come from heating the metal to a very specific temperature. Heating already-hardened steel, springs, etc., will anneal them/ take the temper out.
YMMV
