Do I need caliber engraved on SBR?

[Romero Zombie]

Hi all,
Just got my first tax stamp approved for an SBR. The lower I have says "multi" for caliber. If I did the paperwork for a .300 Blackout build do I need ".300" engraved on the lower somewhere or not. Thanks in advance.

No

ETA: You should have the caliber on the barrel though.

You should be getting close. I think my last one was about 95 days and was the 17th of January.

Not to thread jack....but while we are on the subject of SBR's. If I do the form one for a .300AAC BO lower that is marked multi, can I put a 5.56 upper on it as well as the .300 BO?

No. But, you should indicate a caliber on your form 1 as it will get rejected. They have been rejecting "multi" as a caliber. You could however, list it with one caliber and then in the additional info, list additional calibers to be used with the rec.

The caliber needs to be viable on any part of the rifle. The law does not state it has to be the receiver. Some barrels are shipped sterile ( no markings) in those cases I've seen upper receivers engraved and even ejection port covers engraved with a caliber.

as far as swapping uppers goes, you can swap to your hearts content. Research it and beware of internet advice. 99.6% of it when it comes to nfa is wrong

Thanks for the info. Got it engraved this afternoon. Here's my first NFA item:



Mosly Seekins parts. Built it from stripped lower/upper.

Seekins Precision parts are just so damn sexy

Really need to send in a form 1 on my Seekins lower rifle

I made my lower from a 80% lower . Figured I couldn't sell it if I wanted , so what better lower to engrave my trust name on . The caliber is on the dust cover of the upper .
