[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1669631, member: 27307"] Laser engraving and mill engraving are popular when you have the cash and volume to warrant the expenditure. The Hermes Pattern engravers are and have been popular for decades and when procured from the used market can be economical. Nowadays with complex and complicated logos, lots of smaller gunsmithing companies and individuals rely on Marking Methods: [URL]https://www.markingmethods.com/store/pc/home.asp[/URL] This is usually a template taped onto the barrel where acid and electricity are used to etch the logo or company ID into the metal. GAP, SAC and a multitude of other gunsmiths use this system for their markings. It's very simple as well as safe. My logo and cartridge information are relatively simple by design so I can use my local laser engraver for marking parts and rifles. I call ahead, make an appointment and take several barreled action in at a time. He has all my designs and sizes on file so I can go have lunch or a cup of coffee and return when he's finished. I get my bolts marked with the last few digits of the serial number also. Nice man, easy to work with and reasonably priced in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
