Building an SBR

[Nash B.]

The next item on my list is a .300 Blackout SBR, using one of the lowers I already have. From my research, I need to have the receiver engraved with the name of my trust and my city and state, and then send in a Form 1, copy of my trust, and the $200 to the ATF. Is there anything else?

The cheapest/closest place is Identmarking.com

$45 for SBR engraving. They are an SOT, call them up, ship them the receiver UPS, and they will ship it back to you - no special BS required. Their turnaround time is currently 1-2 weeks.


edit: They are in Rockwall... just on the other side of the lake if you want to drop it off.

Any trophy shop

Any specific location lower must be engraved?

It needs to be an unobstructed location. There are very stringent requirements for the depth, and size. Taking it to a trophy shop is kind of a liability imho. If you send it to ident they can engrave the top of the trigger guard, on your receiver... almost invisible to prying eyes.
