ATF 5300.4 in 27 CFR 479.102 (page 92) describes what is necessary to engrave on
a SBR or SBS when one is manufacturing. This is not necessary if you purchase one that is already manufactured as it will have been done for you.1) On the Frame or Receiver the Serial number; 2) on the frame, receiver, or barrel the following additional information; A)The model; B)The caliber or gage; C)Your name or name of the Trust in the case of a Trust (no abbreviations are permitted for the Trust name); D)The city and state (you can abbreviate the state with the official 2 digit state code)The above mentioned information must be engraved, casted, stamped (impressing) or otherwise conspicuously placed or caused to be engraved, cast, stamped (impressed) or placed to a minimum depth of .003 inch and in a print size of the Serial number shall be no smaller than 1/16 inch. |

Quick question--say I've got an SBR and damage the threads/crown when removing a muzzle device beyond repair and I need to replace the barrel. When the SBR was manufactured the receiver was only engraved with trust and location information because the caliber was located on the barrel in an easily readable location (receiver marked multi). Suppose the replacement barrel has the caliber markings in a location that will be partially covered by the barrel nut thus making it extremely difficult to read when assembled. The configuration (caliber, length) has not changed, just the barrel. Is the newly assembled gun still legal or does the receiver need to be re-engraved to add the caliber to the lower?

Is that conspicuously placing? Yes - GTG, No - Try Again. |

The regulation was posted. Osprey 21 and Renegade X covered it. Is there something else you wanted to know?

The PDF he linked is dated 2005, I was under the impression there had been some updates recently. Does anyone know about this? https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/27/479.102 |
