I know this has been asked before but I can't find the specific answer I want so I apologize but...
I'm getting ready to file my form 1 with my trust information. I was planning on waiting until my form was approved to have my 80% lower engraved, but I have to submit a serial number, can this be any number I make up or are there restrictions? Can it be my trust, my address, serial #1? Is there any length or complexity requirements? |
| I would use your initials followed by some numbers (e.g. XYZ1001 or XYZ-1001). I believe it needs to be alpha numeric and hyphens are allowed. Once you send in your Form 1, go ahead and get it engraved, as you don't want to be caught flat-footed when it comes back approved. My Form 1 was just approved two months before I expected... |
