Dr. Death's a good guy, despite the name. ;-)
Ideally you would get them engraved first if you want any kind of serial # on them. http://vadertactical.com does good work. Then you machine them, then you paint them (duracoat's nice) or you get them anodized (you'll need to hang out there while it happens since it's a firearm at this point unless they have the right licenses). It's possible to get it engraved after the milling, but much like the anodizing the logistics can be trickier.
