I've never had anything engraved before and would like to see the quality of their engraving before I send off my lower.  I am only interested in text engraving, not custom images.  Their site was not very helpful with this.  Thanks.

I'd rather not post pictures of my SBR engravings, but both lowers I had done were perfect.  I was amazed at the turn around time on each.  Also I was surprised that when I had a payment problem with my second lower, I had received it back before Orion had even been paid for the job.

Go with them, you will be happy.

Go with ORION ARMS with CONFIDENCE!!!!!!!

Just had an SBR Lower engraved by them. Had the engraving done on the front of the Magwell.

Engraving is CLEAN and CRISP, VERY PROFESSIONAL!!!!!!!!!!!

From ship date to back in my grubby hands was 10 days.

Orion's work is TOP SHELF all the way.  After a couple emails to Ryan, I decided to have the front of the mag well on my POF receiver engraved.  I didn't want the engraving sticking out like a billboard yet needed it to be 100% legal.  I had only one shot at getting this right as I had already sent in my forms.  If the engraving got screwed up, I was stuck with it...  ugly or not...  Orion came through with flying colors!!!  They did exactly what was agreed upon and I couldn't be happier with the results.  Unless you were directed right to the engraving, you'd never know it was there!  AND...  It's 100% ATF legal!!

I have two more recievers on order for my next SBR builds.  NO if's, and's or but's...  it will be Orion that will handle the engraving!!!

Another "I'll give him a good reference but I ain't posting my engraving."

You're asking people to give out their name and location, or at least their trust/corp name and location.

I got something a little extra engraved on my lower.

I'll see if I can get some decent pics of it.

You can be confident your lower will be excellent though.

I don't care to see your name or the name of your trust, most peoples pics have that info covered anyways.  I see no harm in anyone seeing that you are from Wherever, TX though.

Mine was just finished by Orion Arms.

It was quicker than I expected; they said something like 3-4 weeks but it only took them one week for mine.

I should recieve it back by the weekend; can't wait.

The pics of the "ATF Markings" on their site is what they will look like on your lower with the exception that they will be somewhere on your lower & not on a shotgun barrel. They do the best work so send it off with confidence.

We had these done for MDShooters.com a few months back.

Great work, fast service and good communication

+1 I UPS'ed my receiver to them on 6/11 and it's being delivered back to me today! 8 days door to door turn around!

I probably won't post a pic of it but I will report back tonight on how happy I am with the results.

What  do they charge for the SBR engraving?

Well mine was sitting there waiting on me when I got home. Pulled it out and it looked real nice. Only issue for me was they didn't do a great job of "blackening" the engraving. No big deal, sprayed with some break cleaner, dried it off then pooled some BC Aluma Black over the engraving for about 5 mins and now it damn near looks factory

E-mail them. It might take a day or 2 for them to respond but their prices depend on how many lines you want and where?

Another big +1 for Orion. Thirteen days door to door and the engraving was perfect.

I was thinking of having mine done under the trigger guard, any idea what it costs?  Yes, I'll email them if nobody knows, but it's 1am and I'm hopin someone responds before tomorrow. :)

I just had Orion engrave some stuff for me.  They had excellant customer service.  I always got a prompt email response.  They had the job done must faster than I expected.  Just email them if you have any questions, they will surely answer them all.
