Kirk, can a rifle be engraved after the fact, meaning after is has been delivered?
If it can, I'm thinking in a couple of years of sending my gun back for a few enhancements, like a bit of refreshing on the metal finish, engraving and perhaps a Lucinda hammer which I really like.
Thanks
Laurence

Re: Engraving and finish
I asked Kirk the same question some time ago and this was his answer:
"Hi Mike, you can do this, but it is going to be costly due to the fact, everyting has to be annealed, then re-polished, then re- heat treated. Thanks Kirk"

Thanks, Mike.
I thought that might be the case
