We are able to engrave firearm slides only. At this time, we do not hold an FFL and cannot accept full firearms or frames. We only accept bare slides—all optics, barrels, and internals must be removed prior to drop-off or shipping.
Not for bare slides! Since we are working with non-serialized parts and not handling complete firearms or frames, no FFL is required. That said, we take compliance seriously—please follow our submission guidelines carefully.
All internal components and accessories must be removed before we can begin work. This includes:
Optics
Sights (if possible)
Firing pins, barrels, springs, etc.
We will not disassemble or reassemble slides for liability reasons.

We recommend vector files (like SVG, AI, or EPS) for the cleanest results, but we can also work with high-resolution PNGs or JPEGs depending on the design.
We can offer everything from light surface marking to deep engraving, depending on the material and desired look. Let us know if you're aiming for aesthetics only or something more aggressive and durable.
*Pricing subject to change based on depth of engraving.
We can engrave on a wide variety of finishes including Cerakote, stainless steel, nitride, and more. Just let us know your slide material and finish ahead of time so we can dial in the settings for the best results.
No. At this time, we do not engrave serialized parts or offer ATF-required NFA engravings, as this would require an FFL.
Yes, you can ship your bare slide to us—no full firearms, please. Be sure to package it securely and include your contact info and order details. Return shipping will be discussed when placing your order.
Most slide engraving projects are completed within 3–5 business days once we receive your slide and confirm the design. We'll give you a firm estimate when your order is placed, prior to accepting payment.
