THE LOST ART OF ENGRAVING...

Even those who do not own a Glock have to appreciate this fine craftsmanship:

Tattoo your glock

I met this guy at a gun show in Spokane. I think it was Lone Wolf Distributors? He also had a ported Glock that had flames down the slide and barrel. I'll look around for the brochure if anyone wants more info.

I got that in an email too. I'd guess it's a fotoshop since the bottom letters creep into the crown on the barrel. That wouldn make sense for a real engraving.

Doubt that the engraving is offered or doubt that the one in the picture is the real deal?

I have seen a glock barrel with the same thing engraved on the muzzle in person.

Personally, I think this modification would cause nightmares if the gun were to ever be used in a self defense situation.

Not functional?
Isn't the crown is there to simply protect the lands & grooves from being readily molested? What functional defect would a laser engraving like the one in the photo cause?

A little clarification

I should clarify, "I met this guy ( the engraver) at a gun show in Spokane." I held this gun (or a copy), two that were flamed, one that extensive spider webbing, and some weird pink digital camo one. His work can be seen on his website.
