Big thumbs up to the guys at Orion. Engraving looks great and the turn around was pretty quick :44:

Looks great!

That does look good--- I did not know that Orion was in Clanton!!!
Does Orion have an actual "storefront"? :wink:

That looks like the original posters form 1 address, not orion arms.

^ I got a feeling Tony knows that

is this "typically" where the NFA info is engraved on MP5 's ?

 

[kilr95ss]

This is the location that Orion uses.

anyone have a pic of dakota tacticals engraving site?

I don't know where Joe does his but I usually do them in the same location as Orion although if the info is short enough I have been able to fit it on the right side of the mag well on all but the MKE guns as ATI has pretty much cluttered up all of the space on theirs. I have also seen them done on the top of the receiver and in the stock channel.

Mine were done on the bbl by Keith Norman of NFA Investments as I waited and talked toys with him.

that is nice work but I much prefer the stock channel as the location for engraving. Right where yours is would be my last choice, but as they say, degustibus non disputandum est.

They certainly do good work. They have done (redone in two cases) all 4 of my SBRs and when they say it will be .003 or more deep it will be (which is why they had to redo two of my previously done SBRs whose engravers apparently did not know how to measure depth). Great company and I have always had very fast turn around times.

I have mine engraved only on the flat flange at the rear of the receiver. Many builders mark them there, and I've never, ever heard of improperly located markings. Orion is being overly cautious on the whole "conspicuously marked" clause which is why I personally would never use them. As long as it can be made visible without the use of any tools whatsoever, it is acceptable. If it literally had to be 100% visible 100% of the time, then the markings on the top spine of the receiver would be illegal, as they are covered up when a scope mount is installed. And even then, some of them require tools to remove, and it's still not a problem. If it can be easily identified upon inspection, it's fine.

 

[kilr95ss]

Hmm, I remember that on my next one.

I thought ATF stipulated the engraving should say "SBR BY name, City, State" You seem to just have "name, city, state". WHat gives?

 

[kilr95ss]

You only have to identify what you are making on the Form 1. Only the manufacturers name, city and state have to be engraved on the weapon.

Thanks for sharing the pic!
I was thinking of using them for my USC and an ar lower.
