Getting your name engraved on a gun

[rocklobster]

Why not get a tastefully monogrammed leather shell holder, sling, or scabbard for the rifle? Save the permanent modifications for the oh sh$% moments.

If you will keep it for sure. But maybe done in Latin or some other cool lettering or ancient language.

Saddam should have asked the question here before he engraved his name on this Ruger.

Gallows humor?

I have a commercial Long Lee Enfield. Somebody stuck a silver plate on the butt.

Must be awkward. Those things are 9 inches in diameter.

All of my Marlin lever guns have coffee mills fitted to the stocks.

Fights like hell to abolish registry, engraves name on rifle.

You can also notch the stock with each kill.

Don't laugh , many Europeans think nothing if it.
I know of an original Mannlicher Schoenaur that has over 40 notches in it and I doubt that the original owner really gave a hoot what future keyboard jockeys would think about it

Same as monogrammed shotguns , a lot have past through my hands over the years and the monograms actually add to the provenance .

are we talking Sauer/Heym custom shop type engravings or elerctro pencil in the basement after a few beers engravings?

Just saw a Win. 94 on E.E. with mooses carved in the stock, upside down.

Do not do it! I would never buy a gun with someone else's name on it unless it was "Clint ..... or Justin T... Even Trump? "

LOL

I've got a Winchester 92 receiver that I picked up for parts, that has a big "WC" stamped on one side. I'm hoping "WC" stands for William Cody!

Typically a monogram on a shotgun is on a small brass disc on the toe of the buttstock. More discreet and easily replaced if desired. When I custom ordered guns it wasn't an option I selected but the presence of one on a used gun didn't bother me.
