You do know that BATFE reads this forum, right? I suggest when giving advise that may or may not get someone else in legal trouble, that you stick to what you can confirm and leave the things you think you know to campfires and beer stories. If unsure which is which, pick up the phone and call them yourself. Hell, I had to do that regarding barrel length. It took 5 minutes to confirm that I had old info and get it straight. I would think that a businessman, let alone a FFL/SOT holder, would understand this simple principle.


On a side note: Your not the guy from American Guns, are you? You have the same BS know it all attitude as him.....


What he is saying isn't illegal to do. UNTIL you put the shorter than 16" bbl'd upper on the lower you are NOT Violating ANY CITY, STATE OR FEDERAL LAW.
Engrave away, Just do not put the short upper on until you have the approved form in your hands.
That i know directly from the ATF, multiple agents if you need to know .

Why anyone is concerned the feds read this or other gun forums i don't understand. If you advocate violating fed law you don't last long on the site.
