I have had my initials engraved on several guns and I frankly "don't give a damn" whether the next owner likes it or not. My amazement is that so few guns have anything on these plates, even after 100 years and God knows how many owners. I surely don't disagree with Ken's answer or his advice, either. I just will do with my guns as I wish, assuming I plan to keep them for a reasonable length of time.
