Once you read the info it then informs you the SBR is their serial #.

Yhea, it's Spikes, and that serial number series is coveted for converting into real SBRs.

You still need to engrave your info on the receiver thus negating the cool factor of having a sbr that is # SBR-1234
I have a factory DPMS BR lower receiver, it took forever to get it from dpms to Alan years ago. However well worth the wait. The only thing holding me back from a few form 1's now is the whole engraving info on the receiver crap.

The only thing holding me back from a few form 1's now is the whole engraving info on the receiver crap.

Yhea, one of my two SBR serial numbered receivers has already been engraved. When I'm ready, it'll be ready. In the meantime, I get to have it in my possession and play with it (with long barrels, of course). So, no engraving and you wait for it almost a year, or it's engraved and you get to actually keep it at home during the wait -- the tradeoff.

You can always come up with a cool trust name. I thought a trust titled "In God We" would look pretty good But I went for something more mundane.

This is my dedicated .22LR. It's got a 6.5" 1:14 twist barrel and a Gemtech Outback II silencer. It has featured a variety of Ciener and non-Ciener bolts over the years, but is currently running the Spikes version.

It took a fair bit of tweaking to get it to run right. Combined with the tedium of loading the magazines, the novelty wore off pretty quickly. Now it is mostly used by women and small children when not otherwise gathering dust. Turns out .22LR isn't the caliber for me.
