EOT engravers?

Likely reaching here but wondered if anyone could identify an engraver that use to work EOT and is likely no longer with us.

 

Looking for a gentleman that engraved and took in work @ EOT consistently from '97 to 2000.

 

Recently bought a pair of guns that "he" engraved but owner couldn't remember engraver's name. Back strap, cylinder and ejector rod housing are done up nicely. Appreciate a name or a list of names that might have done the work in those time frames.

 

I'd guess there are a few here that own similar work.

 

Thought some pictures might help. Appreciate any info or suggestions you might have on the artist.
