Hi all, I have a friend whom I've convinced to start branching out to laser engrave/etch guns. He has some questions and I told him I might be able to get some info on THR (since everyone's so knowledgeable )
Here are the questions he asked, if anyone has any answers I'd appreciate it. Thanks a lot.
I have a Co2 Laser machine. 80 watts.
For guns, what gun(s) are etchable?
What type of coating are on the guns?
What problems have people run into while etching guns?
What guns are easier to laser etch than others?
What about Cermark? how long does that last on barrels/slides?
How long does cermark branding last?
For those who don't know I believe the cermark is what is used to do reflective materials such as stainless steel (the laser can't cut into it because apparently it would bounce back into the machine, or so I'm told).
