SilencerHQ in Bennett does NFA engraving.
Idk if its with a CNC or laser tho. I always thought that your average trophy shop laser engraver would have a hard time getting to that depth, even as small as it is. |

The majority of CO2 bench top Laser engravers will not get deep enough to meet the NFA requirement.
YAG Laser from a professional shop will do it. Otherwise your best bet is still CNC or manual(pantograph) engraver work. |

While I agree NFA isn't something to mess with, the .003 is hard to measure, so I don't know if my engraving meets that standard. I had a local trophy/award shop do it in Bellevue right outside of Offutt, and the guy was awesome. $20 and a quick turn around, and it looks fantastic, very professional. I can't imagine how these people can charge $75+ for engraving like some businesses do...

Which requires to part to be dead nuts flat, which u have to spend time to do. Also you need to write the program and convert to gcode so the machine will read it. Once u get that down it can go pretty fast, but still requires time to do. |

I've had a couple done at 4 Seasons in Ralston, as have other in the Omaha area.
Not laser, but looks good. Plenty deep, more than .003" I'm sure. I think it was $40-45 each. Map |
