[KDUBCR250]

Had my AR lower engraved for a SBR build Im starting by purple72 . He did a great job and even meet me on Fri night and did the work while I waited plus he did it for a GREAT PRICE ! Heres a pic of his work. Anyone who is needing engraving done needs to hit this guy up.

Is that the required .003 deep? If it is, I assumed you colored it back in with something?

He went a little deeper than whats required. So after I filled it in Id still be well within what is required. Filled it in with aluma-black .

Why is Martinsville spelled wrong???

 

[purple72]

Looks to me like it is spelled the same way you spelled it. So, how is it supposed to be spelled? And yes, to cover the feds, I went .008.

Martinsville, what's a Martinsville, I thought all there was in Morgan County was Mooresville, Monrovia, Eminence, Paragon and Morgantown.

Nothing like having the Mooresville/Martinsville thing thrown on the wall!

Dang ! Knew I missed something.

He did mine a few weeks ago. I want to fill it in too but was worried that it would be thicker than .005 and put my ending depth -.003. Where do you get aluma-black?

Bradis but you can also get it online. Id check MCsports since youre in Btown.If you wanted you could borrow mine or stop by and use it to fill it in.

Did he just use stamps or an actual engraver?

He used a cnc machine.

Stamps? Come on man. I engrave for a living.

On my next one can you just scrape it out by hand...?

Wasn't knocking your "living" but was asking a simple question. Also, I didn't know if you could have it stamped or you had to have it engraved.

It doesn't matter how the markings get in there, just as long as they get in there.

You could scratch it in with a toothpick if you wanted, but you might go through a lot of toothpicks before you get it down to the minimum depth...

 

[purple72]

Yes, you could use stamps. But, you'd probably destroy the lower by the time you got it in there. plus, there is that whole keeping things straight. As long as it's .003, doesn't really matter how it gets there. As CountryBoy19 said.
