Long story short, I have gun trust already, but the name of my trust is ridiculously long. I'd rather not change the name of the trust bc it would complicate a lot of things. My question is...is there any advantage to manufacturing and engraving my own sbr versus purchasing an sbr from a manufacturer? Thanks for any and all input.

You could just form another trust for your new SBR with a shorter name. I personally think it is better to buy a factory SBR and not have the ugly engraving. You can get a factory Colt from Clyde's Armory for about the same price as a Title 1 gun.

JP There is a lot of pride and satisfaction in building it yourself if you are into that kind of thing. You will know how to fix it and you will probably buy a field repaid kit just because you know how to use it. The engraving does not HAVE to be ugly. There is a depth requirement but not a size requirement. A good engraver can make it look great. Just Sayin! |

Well, the fact remains that the rifle will have your name (or trust name), city and state on it, and no one wants that. So you're pretty much married to it, unless you want to take a large hit. I always recommend factory SBRs if the customer has an option. |
