mrs johnr won this gun last week from a local KC raffle, while we were soaking in the sun 1500 miles south. I have never owned a lever action, it is pretty sweat.
Just wondering if a guy could have the gun engraved with some neat stuff on the gold area, like a family crest type of engraving with the kids names or some such crap, to use more so as a decoration.
Seems too nice and pretty to use, I know they are not huge valued guns, but sure is pretty.

Anyone ever have one of these engraved? Cost? Where to have it done?

Thanks

They aren't just for decoration. Henry takes pride in their materials and workmanship. Anyways, my suggestion is to contact the company for an actual factory job or call jewelry stores. Keep the talk about the gun not about your penis.

Henry sells custom engraved side for around $100 (don't quote me on the price) and you just replace the original ones with them!

If you go the jewelry store route, they may be more receptive if you let them know they'll be working with brass.

I'll bet it's fun to eff up if you're an engraver.

We have the stocks engraved on the ones we raffle up here. About $20 at a shop in Minot. They turn out nice. It is a lazer deal so really sharp lines. Just make sure they know which side is up :D

Do they also do the metal part, or just the stock?

I will try contacting Henry, see what they can offer.

Thanks guys

That's the best route john,have the factory do the job,once engraved they'll seal the metal so it won't tarnish,and yes,very nice looking plinker.

We have only had them do the stocks. they have turned out nice, but I think I would check out the deal right from Henry adn see how that turns out. I would be curious to see a pic if someone has had this done. Have won three Golden Boys from our raffles up here and would like to engrave them to give to the three boys.
