Pistol Engraving Engravers

Where can I go for getting an automatic pistol engraved in Austin, Texas?

I am wanting to get my husband's gun engraved for a surprise for him this year. Does anyone know the best place to go or have any advice?
His gun is solid black with rubber grip and I'm wanting to get some type of design engraving on it, with maybe some type of different grip. We've kinda talked about it years ago and he wouldn't mind a nice grip with maybe some type of etching or engraving on it, but it has to still have "grip".
I also remember him saying that it can't be too flashy or "fancy", lol. So I can add some silver too it, but NO GOLD and no girlie motifs.
Where do I go to get this done though? I wouldn't know where to start. I would perfer a local shop in the Austin, Texas area, I don't think I'd be very comfortable with shipping it anywhere. So, looking for a "PistolSmith" or Gun Engraver in or around the Austin, Texas area.

If you have any suggestions please let me know I could really use the help, thanks!

Bingo Daubers – More Than Just Markers

Bingo daubers are small tools that players use to blot numbers on Bingo cards. Usually a Bingo dauber is a small bottle filled with ink. All you need to do to use one is to press it lightly against a Bingo card and see the numbers daubed. It's as simple as clicking your fingers.

Traditional Bingo daubers are shaped like a small bottle. However, some trendy Bingo daubers are also available these days. They come in all shapes and colors. Don't be surprised if you see a Bingo dauber in the form of a Lighter, Pistol, or Candle etc. This really adds charm to Bingo and makes it more attractive and fun to play.

You will be surprised to know but players love their Bingo daubers. So much so that players even engrave their names or lucky numbers on them to turn a Bingo dauber into nothing less than a lucky charm. Getting lucky sometimes leads players to use a dauber with their lucky ink. Traditional Bingo daubers are filled with pink ink, but players experiment with ink colors as well. For example, someone may use a Bingo dauber with green ink since green is the color of the money to roll in plenty of dollars.

Bingo daubers are not less than accessories to players. In a land-based Bingo hall, you can see players using customized caps on their daubers to make their daubers look unique and trendy. There are special pouches available that players use to keep their daubers for quick access. At the same time, it lets them flaunt their Bingo daubers.

Bingo daubers are not limited to Bingo halls any more. Children use them in drawing and other fine arts. With special Bingo daubers that are available in shimmers, coloring turns out to be real fun. They are used in offices and even as white board markers in various classrooms.

So the next time you hold that special Bingo dauber of yours, don't take it as a mere tool to mark numbers.
