Who in the Lehigh Valley or the Slate Belt does it?
I have a pistol that has a faint but clear serial number on the palm part of the frame. Wanted to get it Ceracoated but was told the prep would take out part of the numbers. I need some one to trace over it and cut it Deeper. Anyone know of anybody?
Gunsmiths who have a manufacturers license can do it.
Does anyone one know a good source?
OP, I don't know specifically what you need, if a laser job will accomplish it, or if Pottstown is too far for you but there have been a lot of happy customers on this forum praising
Laserworx in Pottstown. I personally haven't had the pleasure(a bit too far for me).

Yes definitely to far for me also. Looking for someone in the Lehigh Valley or close to the Slate Belt.
Lanco tactical in etown pa does it. The did mine on the spot of I recall.
Be careful. With the usual IANAL disclaimer, it is my understanding that reworking a faint, shallow serial number is still considered to be "altering" it within the purview of the law and, as such, is both a state and federal offense. I believe this is why Abner13 suggested a gunsmith who has a manufacturer FFL.
Call the nearest BATFE office and ask before you take your firearm to the nearest trophy shop that has a laser engraver and turn them loose on it.
Call it ten times. Then average out the answers you get.Quote:

If you are trying to have it refinished the .003 that the average shop does isn't deep enough. You really want a shop that can engrave to depth of about .006 to .008 range.
