Hi Gang:

Is it possibe to engrave aluminum receivers? I would like to "upgrade" the engraving on several guns that I have that have aluminum receivers. I like the light weight that aluminum offers in a field gun but I also like engraving.

If Ken H. replies to this post, kindly forward to me your phone number.

TIA,

Franchi

Them as practice the art, like Ken H, will have more direct experience, but I have seen high grade H&H rifles with engraved actions including aluminium floorplates. Compared to that on the hard steel receivers, the engraving on the floorplates looked very coarse, a fact that I attributed to the relative softness of their metal. Of course, there could be other explanations, but that one seemed logical to me.
