I'm contemplating doing a Form 1 for my X95 and ordering the SBR kit and thin plastic buttpad from IWI.
My only question, and one I can't seem to find an answer on, is the engraving.
ATF requires either the barrel or receiver to be engraved. The barrel is out, since virtually none of it will be visible.
That leaves the receiver.
I found an old thread on another site where a person had their engraver mill out a section of the plastic to expose the metal chassis, and had the metal underneath engraved.
My question is, is that necessary?
Would I be able to have my info engraved directly into the polymer, below where IWI had their info engraved? Or does it have to be into the steel underneath to meet the ATF's requirements? I'd imagine if IWI is allowed to engrave into the polymer, I should be able to do the same. But I'm far from a NFA expert.
