You can register either an existing pistol, an existing rifle, or a virgin receiver as the basis of your new SBR. It doesn't matter.

You'll be the "maker" and do it on a Form 1, presumably. Nothing wrong with asking a local C3 to help you out with the paperwork, but no dealer involvement is required to "make" a new SBR on a Form 1. You'd only have to involve a Class 3 dealer if buying an already-made SBR from someone out of state, to avoid an additional transfer tax.

What do you suggest when it comes to engraving the information?

Thank you very much for this information.

Find a local trophy shop/engraver near you that isn't anti-gun. They'll need to do it while-u-wait unless they're also an FFL.
If no appropriate local shop is available, I've heard good things about Ident Marking Services and Orion Engraving, and a web search should turn up contact info/website for either place.

Is engraving necessary? Reading the form 1 instructions it sounds like you register it using the existing serial #. You only need to put additional data if you are building from scratch. Is this right?

If you sBR and existing weapon (based on Filthy Phils letter he posted) on a form 1 you need to engrave nothing, repeat noting on the weapon. If a class 3 license holder had to cut the barrel then he'd have to put his mark on it.

Okay I take my stripped AR lower send in the forms etc get my stamp back and put on the short upper and I'm good?
