Custom etching of gun barrels

++++++

I am a Jewelry designer and student metalsmith. I have a client that has asked me to etch a saying into a gun barrel for him. I have seen pieces that have been etched before, but I am not sure if standard acid etching was used or if something else is required? As I am new to this arena, I am searching for some more experienced advice before I under take this project. Thank you for your assistance.
