Can i engrave my trust info on the grip tab? That little tab where you screw your grip? Is this legal? Only if you own a time machine. Prior to 1986, there were no regs on visibility, so NFA items made back then could -- and often were -- engraved on that tab. That changed in the '90s, when the regs were changed to include a minimum type size and depth, and also added a requirement that they be visible without disassembly of the firearm. Sorry that you missed your window of opportunity.

Why is it that on some firearms, the serial number can be covered by attachments, rails and optics and that is never an issue but you can't cover your name or trusts name on an SBR with anything?
Seems the serial number being obscured would be more of an issue than the manufacturer. |

Once it's out the door of the manufacture and they comply with the law, then they have no liability on what you attach to cover up the markings. Maybe it's implied but your able to cover after the fact? (Ie. How you can change the barrel length of an SBR, because there is no law stating it) |
