Friend of mine is looking to buy a SAA revolver for her spouse, and possibly wanted to get something special engraved on it to commemorate an anniversary. I have no idea what kind of price range she's thinking of, but wanted to see if anyone here had any options? Her spouse currently has a henry lever action in 45 colt, so I was going to suggest a SAA revolver chambered the same. It's not going to actually get used for cowboy shooting events, just for pleasure shooting.

If she were to purchase something like an Uberti 1873, are their gunsmiths in the denver metro area that could do some simple engraving? Any idea what the lead time and price would be for that kind of work?

It looks like there are multiple engravers in the Denver Metro area depending on the type of engraving you want.
If it is custom hand engraving, then the source could be FEGA - the Firearms Engraving Guild.
You will spend some money, wait some time, but the results can be amazing.

One of our members, Paddywagon, does engraving.

He's down South, about an hour, but may likely be a resource to consider?
