I just received my AR SBR back from my gunsmith, and have already received the paperwork and stamp from the BATFE. I was wondering if there are any suggestions on where I could send the lower to get the required engraving done? I live in South Florida, but would be more than willing to send the stripped lower to any reasonably priced place around the country.

I use Ident Marking and find them to do a great job. Another popular option is Orion Arms. I don't think you will go wrong with either.
I like that these places can put the engraving under the trigger guard, which is where I prefer to have mine engraved. http://www.identmarking.com/ Or http://www.orion-arms.com/ |

FWIW, AJI Machining in Hialeah will do it for $25, while you wait. I haven't had any done there, but they are a licensed 07 manufacturer and I've heard they do excellent work. http://www.ajimachining.com/ |

I was going to use the local trophy shop until I heard by someone that a friend of a friend on the internet said they heard that the finish on a Spikes Tactical lower "chipped" easy if not ingraved by a professional. Any truth to that, I don't know. I sent mine off to Ident also. They were really nice on the phone, answered all my questions, called me back promptly, etc. I trust them to do a 110% great job and I'm sure I won't be disappointed. And, they gave me the best price to engrave beneith the trigger area. In matter of fact, their price beat the others by 40% and they didn't require me to strip the lower, just remove the trigger/hammer group. |
