Thank you very much. It reads that "multi" is acceptable. At least from my interpretation.

Quoted:
Does anyone know for SURE if the caliber is required? I have two receivers, one is marked 5.56 the other is multi. They are engraved by the manufacturer. Is that all that's required? I'm not sure if I want to make a 9mm yet or not.
If it's not marked anywhere else, yes. The barrel often meets the requirement.
ATF Ruling 2013-3 spells it out fairly clearly. Take special note of Item 5:
5. If the caliber or gauge was not identified or designated (e.g., marked “multi”) on the firearm, the manufacturer, importer, or maker must legibly and conspicuously mark the frame, receiver, barrel, or pistol slide (if applicable) with the actual caliber/gauge once the caliber or gauge is known.
Thank you very much. It reads that "multi" is acceptable. At least from my interpretation.
Then you need to work on your interpreting skills. (Unless you were saying it was acceptable to use it, but would need to engrave it)
There's no problem using a lower marked "multi".
However, the firearm must be engraved with the caliber if it's not present on the lower. This can be done on the frame, receiver, barrel, or pistol slide (if applicable).
If the barrel is marked, and marked "conspicuously", then you're good. Otherwise, you must engrave.
(You also can't put "multi" on the F1)
