    Im considering starting my second sbr build and saw in the other recent sbr engraving thread some people brought up the option of laser engraving
    So my question is of those of you who have had it done here locally by laser scribe how did it turn out?
    Any pics? And what was the price?
    Now my general question about laser engraving does it still leave bare metal afterword’s like a standard cut? Where I would need to color fill it some how? I previously used black nail polish.
    thanks

    They did 3 of mine. I dont know how it could be done any better. Sure beats mailing them off for weeks at a time.

    No I will not post any pics.

    To me it's alot smarter than sending it off in the mail, no chance of it not making it back to you due to a postal error.

    SP3worker just did mine, and there was hardly any wait. I sent it out on Wednesday I think and I had it back by the following Wednesday.

    the only reason im considering the laser is i kinda want to do like a script font in stead of the block letters of a mill.

    but i cant say enough about how good of a job he did on my first sbr
