Plating, engraving and grips
Master-Grade Plating & Polishing
Elevate your firearm with my premium finishing services. I specialize in everything from precision accent parts to complete, show-quality firearms. Choose from my luxury finishes, including 24k gold and polished nickel, opt for a flawless mirror-polished stainless steel finish, or choose a refined satin nickel finish. Every piece is meticulously prepped and polished to guarantee an exceptional, ultra-smooth reflection that lasts.
Custom Deep-Laser Engraving
Transform your full 1911 build, revolver, or Glock with high-definition, deep laser engraving. I specialize in complete, full-coverage engraving for 1911 firearms and more, featuring intricate scrollwork, Aztec calendars, Santa Muerte motifs, skulls, and dragons. Have a unique vision? Bring me your artwork, and I will engrave your fully custom design.
Premium Exotic Grips
Upgrade your build with authentic, master-crafted exotic grips. I specialize in the 1911 platform while also offering custom fits for other makes and models. Over the last ten years, I have built and sold over 4,000 sets of grips, trusted by individual collectors and major companies placing bulk orders of 300+ sets at a time. I work exclusively with a premium selection of genuine skins—including cobra, python, copperhead, cottonmouth, and rattlesnake, as well as ultra-durable stingray, lizard, and alligator. Each skin is professionally bonded and sealed to guarantee maximum durability and a striking appearance. Let me know your firearm's make and model to get started.
