Hi!
Thanks to Jon at Anvil Arms, and Bill Savage of Bill's Gun Shop (Pipersville, PA), I have my first-ever AR (that is, AR lower, for now), which is just in time as I undertake my move to TN for the summer.
The price of the AR+installed parts kit was perfectly acceptable to me ($175), so had the engraving turned out poorly or not at all, I would not have been (much) upset. However, I like the way it turned out; and I've posted a picture on the page linked below:

In one way, the picture looks better than "real life," because what looks like nice bright white in the picture is just slightly greyer in reality. But that's not much of a complaint! I mean, it was free, and it was done with a frickin' laser beam, from a PDF I provided. Hard to beat that!
The whole process, including finding time to get to Bill's shop (which is not all that far in miles, but takes a while to reach because of twisty roads and my ability to get lost), took just a few weeks. I was very pleased!
I'm sure that when I get the other parts and finally get a chance to fire it that I'll be equally pleased; for now it's just tantalizing.
Cheers,
timothy
