Supporters Finius Posted August 30, 2011 Supporters Share Posted August 30, 2011 Right folks, I've been speaking to Jean who does the custom grips (and does them well), about getting a slide engraved with custom stuff, but I'm having a hard time finding a decent 1991 to start with. He tells me I need something anodized for the best results. So, AF-UK, can anyone with more knowledge on pistols direct me to a cheapish 1911 variant which is "blank" (no trades, at all) that is anodized or otherwise engrave-able. Cheers!

Supporters Finius Posted August 30, 2011 Author Supporters Share Posted August 30, 2011 Is the metal they use suitable for being engraved? I'd heard that you generally require special metal for laser engraving and such? Silver pistol would be a bonus also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters M_P Posted August 30, 2011 Supporters Share Posted August 30, 2011 We do too I think- they probably have more upgrade potential too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Finius Posted August 31, 2011 Author Supporters Share Posted August 31, 2011 I've been put under the impression that WE's slide-metal isn't good enough for engraving? That's my main issue. If I'm wrong then, bonanza! I'm sorted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
