I have a couple guns with new stocks one in particular a Hepburn that I would like to have checkered with the "Hepburn" pattern in the wrist area. Is there anyone out there that does checkering at a reasonable cost?

Maryann Hochenbury in Stevensville MT does great work and is reasonable with her prices and turnaround. She has been the head checkerer for Cooper Arms for years.

Additional photos of Maryann's checkering. She has checkered Martinis, rolling blocks, Ballards, Ruger #1's and a pre 64 Model 70 for my clients or myself. Always superb work.

Like many things a lot of skill and patience involved which I do not have. I envy anyone who can checker or engrave metal.
