Jeff Flannery Introduction

[jeff flannery engraving]

Hello. My name is Jeff Flannery. I live in Union, Ky and have been a full time engraver for 30 years. Mike Dubber engraved my first pistol way back in 1971. After graduation from Ohio University, I was transferred to Mike Dubber's hometown of Evansville, In, where I stayed for 3 years. We have remained friends for all these years. I do mostly production/factory style engraving in the American and English scroll. I also have done a lot of gold wire inlay. At present, I have inlaid over 2 1/2 miles of gold wire, and have engraved over 1,200 handguns. After transferring to Cincinnati, I met Roger and Carl Bleile at Louis Arms Manufacturing in Cincinnati, Ohio. This was a meeting place for many gun enthusiasts at that time. Roger and Carl Bleile and I have remained friends for the past 35 years.

My website is www.flannerygunengraving.com

God Bless America, No matter who is in charge.

Hey, Jeff! Welcome!
Missed you a few weeks ago at Ohio Gun Collectors.
I was hanging around with Ray Phillips, Roger Bleile and Joe Rundell.
I really regret I just couldn't get Scott's Engrave-In worked into my schedule.
We need to get down there and do that.

Jeff, it's great to see someone new on here with such a long and very prolific background as yours. It's always nice to get as much good advice as we can.

BTW I like your web page and was looking forward to seeing your Cowboy Shooters but could not get past that first picture, I'll just assume they look as good as the rest of your work.:big grin:

Hey Jeff..... Welcome to the Cafe.

 

[Sam]

As someone who has only engraved 20-30 guns and inlaid a few yards of gold wire, I feel like an underachiever!

Sam,

Admitting it is the first step....... time to get on the ball you slacker! Hee hee,
