I read a few reviews about this guy’s work and decided to give him a try. The price was right. He turned them around in a night (delivered to him around 3p and in the mail back to me the next morning). The PTR I asked him to do it in a place that was discreet and he knocked it out of the park. I’ll be using this guy going forward.

Girl. Not guy.
The wife, Teri, handles all the engraving. I’ve had them do nine F1 cans and a couple lowers for me, and close to 100 tumblers and coffee cups for church. They one of the few places where you don’t have to settle for just choosing two when it comes to price, quality and speed. |

Well in that case I have to apologize. Teri does an excellent job. She will be getting my business going forward.

They've done all my AR lowers and 1 AK. I am paranoid about shipping anything gun related so I just drive down from WV and wait while they do them.

Yes, THSF rules! I order all my suppressors through them, and they have done my SBR engraving and paperwork for me too. Pretty soon I'm going to have to drag a couple more items down there for SBR/engraving.

How are you guys shipping your lowers to them? Using the FFL to ship at a reduced rate? Paying the crazy overnight shippings costs from UPS?

My lower was delivered to THSF at ~15:15 on 1/24/20, and I just got a notification that it's completed and packaged up to head back to me at ~10:15 1/25/20 (saturday). They're working harder than I am!

Got my lower back last night. Less than a week round trip from ND to NC and back.
I had them do the engraving in the trigger area so it's a bit tricky to get a pic.

Some folks sweat a PO worker stealing it but, it's highly unlikely a PO worker is going to risk time in the Federal Hooscow over a gun. Theft of mail is a federal offense. Things get lost in the mail, usually from sloppy packaging disintegrating while moving through sorting machines (Item falls from damaged package, package goes on without it), but theft? Not very likely. Pack it like a robot is sorting the mail (they do) and it will be fine. |

I just sent them five items to engrave 4 lowers and a cut down Remington 700. The engraving is perfect, they get the job done and returned fast and most important to me is they are trustworthy. Oh and the price for engraving is very reasonable also.

I just sent them 4 more items to engrave and even with all the gun related stores being so busy they had them engraved and I received them back within one week. I even had a bit of a strange request, I needed the trust info engraved part above and part below the serial number so it would be visible after being installed in a zk-22 bullpup stock. It came out perfect.

Agreed. They've engraved almost every one of my NFA items. I won't even consider anyone else.
Their Form 1 end cap engraving is absolutely phenomenal. They do things I didn't even know was possible. |
