Hope I’m not breaking any rules here but I’d like to recommend a great engraver/smith. I found this site while trying to find an engraver in my area (Northern llinois). Why are engravers so hard to find in this area? I bought my Grandkids Henery Rifles to be given to them as something special from “Papa” when they’re old enough. I don’t think 6 is too young to start the process of learning. Anyway, as I said, I found Angela on the internet. She owns a gun shop in Frankston, Texas a short drive from Dallas.
Angela has done several jobs for me over the past 6 months. An engraving on a Henry H001 reciever, trigger work
and jeweling a on a Model 1911 and currently working on some grips for my 1884 Colt Army Special 32/20. You can check her web at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
It may seem a bit silly, I supose, to ship items to Texas from the Chicagoland area but the prices are resonable and return timely.
Anyone out there who may know an engraver close by Chicago?
