Dwight@Williams Arms?

Dwight,

I have ordered one of your new receivers witha custom serial number. I was wondering: what sort of work and costs would be needed to have this receiver "embossed" with a graphic? The graphic I am interested in placing can be found at: http://www.pbr-fva.org/. It can be found in the upper-right corner of the home page....it's the lower one that reads: River Patrol Force, TF116.

Also, if it is not too late: can I add USN to my custom serial number?

Dear Sailor,

You should write Dwight direct. The Board might not be looked at as often as e-mail.

Were you with TF 116 ? I know some folks that were, while attached to the 9th Inf Div's 3/47 Mobile Riverine Force.

Two of my Aikijitsu Inst's were gunner's on PBR's out of the Delta. One is @ Boeing in WA

Are you aware of the Mobile Riverene Assoc?
I can hook you up with them also.
E-mail me off line if you like.

The graphic you want done might be able to be done by a jewlrey shop. Custom knife makers do their logo's with a tape / acid etch thing thats pretty slick too.

George,

Thanks. I was having seriuos trouble with my email..so, I shot one out via this media. I did, finally, get the mail and a phone call in to Williams. All is well.

Yes, I was a PBR sailor from 10/69-12/70. Mostly in the Bassac and Song On Doc. Rode an LST into Cambodia in 5/70. Am also a member of PBR-VFA and Mobile Riverine.

Was thinking about contacting you to build this FAL. Your in Oregon - right? Plan is to build two - one for me and the other to be donated for the next PBR Annual Meet...assuming $$ hold out.
