This is actually my first post for the forum but wanted to provide a positive review in case anyone in the Central TX area is looking to have their lower or anything else for that matter engraved.

Bill is a great guy, very professional and top of the line equipment. I waited while my lower was engraved and shot the bull with Bill. Turned out fantastic.

Was he able to obtain enough depth with the laser through anodizing? .03 I think it needs to be technically.

Ditto to all the above. With the BS'ing that goes on, it's a surprisingly fast process. Very nice and precise work.

Bill is a 07FFL SOT holder, probably one of a few engraving business's in the US and goes beyond the ATF requirements.

I am sure he could probably cut a lower in half with the equipment he uses.

ATF requires a minimum depth of .003" which can be easily obtained with the right laser.
I believe a YAG laser is best for metals where the Co2 laser is better for wood and fiber. Some times multiple passes are required to get the depth desired.

He has done 3 SBR's for me over the past couple years. Top notch work, plenty deep and he has always done it while I waited too. I also had him numbers match a virgin AKSU-74 it for me and it turned out great.

Awesome, I was just curious. I should have investigated a bit more, didnt realize he does a lot of NFA stuff. The name of the shop just made it sound like he was a run of the mill engraver in which case a lot of times they dont have the right laser to get deep enough.
