Engraving SBR??

Hey all,

Ive decided to take the plunge into NFA weapons. Just ordered an AAC 762sdn6 and also want to submit a form 1 to turn one of my ARs into an SBR.

Ive heard that i need to engrave my info on the lower.
1. Is that in fact the case, or is the existing s/n all thats needed?

2. If i DO need to engrave, do i put the name of the trust as the maker?

I know a bunch of you have been doing this for years (like since bow and arrow days )

Thanks for the input.

Use the SN that is on the lower

If the trust is the entity registering the AR as a SBR on the Form 1 you submitted to the ATF, the full name of the trust must be engraved on the lower. Along with your city and state.

Engraving must be a minimum of 1/16 high and .003 deep.

Your engraving (as the Form 1 maker) must include:
Name
City, State
Model
Caliber
S/N

You can (and are encouraged to) use the existing s/n. So long as the caliber and model name do not change, you can adopt those also.

You must engrave the name of the maker (if it is a trust, you must use the full name of the trust). The state can be abbreviated (e.g., Cincinnati, OH).

Thanks. Thats what i had heard

Can the engraving be done inside the trigger guard, on the bottom of the receiver?

Trying to make it as unobtrusive as possible

Yes, so long as it is visible without having to remove any other parts.
