Yes, I did the engraving. I build cowboy gear (spurs, bits, buckles, ect.) I used to do a lot of firearm engraving, but decided to focus on the bits and spurs. The paperwork and regulations to maintain my FFL got to be more hassle than it was worth. Plus, I didn't want my dogs shot.Very nice!
You did this yourself?

I work out of my home. If I had a store, it would be too much like work.Are you located down near the Fort Worth Stockyards?
Good question! I broke it up into several sessions and didn't track my time as closely as I should have. Thinking about it, it's probably around 35-45 total hours. That also includes smoothing out the action and polishing the cylinderThat’s a beauty! How many man hours went into this?
