    Register 80%

    I've been reading and still can't find out how exactly do i register my ar pistol from an 80% now so next year i can register as an AW? Also what does ATF consider a SN? I know whats supposed to be marked on the gun and that i make up my own sn but i read it must comply with atf definition of one. I cant find anywhere what atf's definition kf a sn is, thanks.

      Per BATFE...

      Markings must be to a minimum depth of .003 inch and in a print size no smaller than 1/16 inch.
      Markings must use Roman letters (A, B, C, etc.) and Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc).

      Markings must include:
      1) Serial Numbers (can not be just a name, must contain numerals)
      2) Model
      3) Caliber
      4) Manufacturer's name
      5) City & State where the Manufacturer is located
      Since you made the receiver, you are the manufacturer. So, your name (first & last) and city/state needs to be engraved on it.

          It can simply be: 1 if that's what you want. Or it can be as long as you want it to be so long as it can be clearly identified as the "serial number".

          Here is one that I'm thinking about using: 2 COR 3-17

          Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.
