The recent "...fully engraved Colt Ltw" thread got me to wondering something I know nada about. Thought I'd ask here first to hear from voices of experience hopefully, before 'net searching...

Say for a customer, how is engraving cost pre-determined by the engraver to write up the order? By the job, by the hour, by say intricacy of detail, by what, how...???

Quite an "in general" question realized, and easy imagine with some highly skilled artisans of the craft, if you have to ask the cost, it's gonna be too much for you, ha. Yet, to learn about, had to start somewhere with it, with the basics.

Any insight appreciated.

Try a Trophy shop, they can scan whatever you would like on computer and lazer engrave it, then back fill the area with a darker stain or black paint for contrast. I've had this done on a number of our clubs rifles and shotguns. May have to check around to a few shops...not all have equipment large enough for long stocks to fit.
