i personally dont see any difference between engraving and grips, how many people on here chose their receiver based on the company logo? if there was a reciver with a proven accuracy increase, but the reciever logo was a pink unicorn, would you take the pink unicorn, or a spikes logo with less accuracy?

while i dont like the punisher grips, i am looking for customized grips i DO like for my 1911 and for the 1911 grips i have on order for my AR.

Customizing your stuff is just another method of artistic self expression, so do whatever you like.

I don't think there is anything wrong with being a comic book/video game nerd AND a gun enthusiast!

Oh an the watchmen thing? http://www.alumagrips.com/main.taf?p=2,1,4
That's cool! I'm really showing my inner dork here, but shouldn't the smiley face not have the blood on it? The blood logo is from when the comedian gets killed, his actual button/logo was just a plain face wasn't it?

I'm going to dig out my copies and look.

A buddy of mine makes Punisher (and many other) logo engraved Glock Plates, AR extended takedown pins, and overside AR magazine release buttons. So I started offering them for sale on my website. Punisher logo is by far the biggest seller, then Hitman, then Infidel, then Patriotic related stuff. I was iffy on whether or not they would sell...but they are definately one of the biggest selling items I have. Really surprised me. So good for him for coming up with a way to make a decent living in such a tough, tough market.

oh, I didn't know I could get Hello Kitty grips for my fully loaded Springfield! I can't wait!

I want Hello Kitty grips!!! Even if someone doesn't like them, who's going to argue? The real problem is my wife, can't you hear it now.... "Ooohhh, how cute, too cute for you". Then MY Hello Kitty 1911 becomes HER Hello Kitty 1911. Then she would send me out to have it powder coated in pink to match the grips, then go find her a pink holster, then a pink belt, you get the idea...
