SBR engraving in Lincoln area?
« on: September 25, 2010, 04:17:35 PM »
Does anyone do SBR engraving in the Lincoln area?  I just bought a new lower receiver that I plan to
SBR, but I kind of cringe at the thought of sending it through the mail after I spend several months and $200 waiting for a stamp.

I am just going out there why not just take to a trophy locale that engraves awards and such and when that take it in they are responsible and liable for it as well... just a thought.

That was what I was thinking, but I'd like to know if anyone has used a local business for SBR engraving since there are specific requirements such as the depth of the engraving.  I would also want to make sure it was a shop that did a quality job.

I would think since the jewelers also use those business on gold,silver and such they do with laser's and would look like the M & P logo's just enough to get the job done and then the shiny metal shows nicely and not too deep... good luck BK...

Bkoenig: Did you ever find someone locally? I'm going to need some engraving done toward the end of the summer.

No, I ended up having Ident Marking do it for me.  They did a fantastic job.

When I built my two suppressors I marked them myself with a set of letter punches from Harbor Freight.  Not as nice looking as the Ident work, but it's passable.

American Reaper Arms can do the engraving. Might not be the cheapest but will look very good.

Hah, I should have thought of you first, Scott.
