    I’ve never seen any warnings etched into guns before, but I haven’t seen any newer guns made since like the mid 90s.

    All I’ve ever seen etched into guns was the brand name, ammo size, serial number, and where the safety button/switch is.

      It started in the 70’s, By the 80’s Ruger was putting it on all of theirs. After Dix V Baretta in the 90’s it became fairly standard.

        Fair enough. I was never a gun enthusiast, but my late father had like 5 different older guns I got to try out back in the day. 🤷‍♂️
