I picked up my 2 lowers from him the other day at his shop. He was nice enough to stay at his shop late for me. The lowers looked great. He did an awesome job. It was great to meet him and I also found out that he does NFA transfers for quite a bit cheaper than my local dealer. I'm definitely going to use him as my engraver from now on and also for any suppressor transfers I do in the future. I highly recommend CS223!

Got my lower back today. It's perfect. And my trust name is LONG and 3 lines, but it's perfectly centered above the trigger pins. I'll certainly use his services again.

Got two back a week or so ago, it was about 7-9 days turn around and perfect work. I'll be sending some more soon.

I think this thread is killing him

I tried to send him 3x and he said he was backlogged

He will get my next lower for sure. I got whored for $125 at a local place and they couldn't do the placement I wanted. He is somewhat local for me as well so I plan to use him for NFA transfers too.

I should be caught up before the end of the week if another 10 packages don't show up tomorrow

At least give me turkey day off......

Another +1 here. Shipped on 7 Nov, arrived back home today (26 Nov).

Exactly what I wanted / where I wanted it, the picture doesn't do it justice. and once it's assembled and painted I doubt it will be noticeable at all.

Got 4 receivers back today. They look great. He will have my business from now on.

Got mine back. Really quick turn around considering the time of year. Engraving looks original to the receiver and discreet. Very happy!

I think he is swamped so it might take a minute for him to get back to you. I contacted him via IM.

I highly recommend CS223.

He did a UZI receiver for me - steel to engrave not aluminum and it was engraved perfect.

Very quick turn around time.

Thanks Charles.

Another happy customer. Very good work! He engraved two lowers for me and I couldn't be happier.

Very happy with CS223's work. Got my PS90 receiver back today and it looks great. He's done a great job on 2 receivers now for me. Very reasonably priced, fast turn around.

Just got my lower back today! It looks great I definitely would recommend his services and will send him my future business.

sent my receiver wednesday.

Does he typically send shipping notice when he's done or should I just expect a package one day?

He doesn't send notices, you just get it one day.

If I get an email addy with the package, 'most' of the time I enter it into USPS Print & Ship, sometimes I get in a hurry & forget. Since I created an order form for folks to use, it's made life a lot easier. When I get just a Post-It note

then I have to email back & forth to get the info, that is if I even get an email address with the note. Since some folks can be slow to respond, I'd rather get it out the door than wait for a reply. I don't bother with IM notifications unless that's the only form of contact I'm given. I don't mind folks checking status, I won't bite your head off and I usually have tracking numbers at hand.

Has anyone had a cerakoted lower engraved? Will I need to get it repainted?

The engraving should get down to bare metal. He can touch that up with Aluminum Black if you want. Not sure what color your coating is, but I'd think black lettering would be better than shiny.

Or, he could leave it raw and you figure out how to make it match.

Yes. He just did one for me two weeks ago.

The engraving isn't really stamping it down a whole lot, the cerakoting kinda stretches but it does become un-uniform as it breaks apart during the engraving. If you fill it with nail polish of your color choice or aluma black it's all good.

Does he do AKs or 10/22s?

I'm going to email him but I thought I'd ask here for quicker answers

I just got two more AR lowers done by Charles, pics below. As you can see, he had to do one on the opposite side because the manufacturer had stuff marked in the usual spot. Once again, great job and fast turnaround!
