Gun Engraving DFW Area
I have a stripped lower that I need to get some engraving work done on.
Does anyone know of a place in the Fort Worth/DFW that does this?
Also, what are the ramifications once I engrave it? Will it need to be recoated?
Thanks!

You don't have to have the lower refinished..he will treat where the engraving was done in black or left shiny.
I don't carry my 40 all the time, just when I leave my home!

ARr-15 aluminum lower? Ideally, yes, but you can discuss options with the engraver.
+1 on Dallas Engraver. Ken is a member (treasurer actually) of our lodge and I have seen some of his work. He does some great work.

Laser engraving for all your Form 1 needs :)
If you're engraving for a form 1, you can clear coat over the exposed aluminum, but you want to leave the engraving open for anyone who needs to inspect it.

This one is in N. Dallas/Addison.
I've used them for a FFL transfer but not for any engraving.

Heard nothing but good things about them. The dealer I purchased my suppressor from uses them for his SBR builds.APynckel wrote:http://identmarking.com/

I just got my lower done by Ken yesterday and it turned out great!

Re: Gun Engraving DFW Area
For gun engraving for SBR, is it better to leave lower stripped or can you send complete lower?
Chance favors the prepared. Making good people helpless doesn't make bad people harmless.
There is no safety in denial. When seconds count the Police are only minutes away.
Sometimes I really wish a lawyer would chime in and clear things up. Do we have any lawyers on this forum?

Re: Gun Engraving DFW Area
Another +1. My buddy and I used them for a couple SBR lowers. Walk in service, couldn't have been nicer/easier, and the results are very nice compared to traditional engraving.APynckel wrote:http://identmarking.com/

They do lower receiver engraving at the shop my son works at: Bear Creek Firearms in Keller. They are a class III dealer / manufacturer, so they do this a lot.
I have a lower that needs to be engraved with the stamp comes back, and that's where I'm taking mine.

I haven't got my form 1 filing back yet, so won't have an engraved receiver to show for a while, but the trust name will be engraved below the serial# on the right side.
