I was wondering if you could let me know what font you use for your business name and city engraving on your receivers. I am wanting to do some SBR engraving to match, and I need the name so I can get my VMC set up correctly. Thanks!
Post a pic of your manufacturer markings (it can vary by vendor) and I'll see if I can match it up for you.

The OP was asking about the lettering on Spikes receivers.

I believe JaxChris works for Spike's. He needs to see the markings due to the fact that several receiver makers have provided parts to Spike's over the years that have Spike's markings on them, but there are differences between each manufacturer.
Got ya. I know he works for Spikes but, I thought Spikes dictated the font and size of there markings. If my assumption was true, he would already know the answer. I had not thought about it your way until you mentioned it.

It varies a little from Manfacturer to Manfacturer.
Here are photos of the two I am currently working on, they are both RM serial numbered:
Before this raises issues for anyone, we are an 07FFL/02SOT and that is a registered machine gun that is already engraved, I just want to start doing our own engraving instead of sending out the work.
And the other:
Thanks in advance.
Best Match: Franklin Gothic Light (likely programmed with) or Franklin Gothic Heavy (how it comes out looking). Rounded ends of lines from milling bit.
