This is for a suppressor or any ATF item, right?
"Tony K" the NFA mod over on Arfcom is adamant about NOT doing this. He claims it is unnecessary, just another place to mess up, and slows things down. It's a given that you're going to get the item engraved and what you have to have engraved. There's more to it but I forget the rest of his argument. He makes some good points and I'm convinced that it's best to leave 4h blank.Section 4h - Additional description: What you will have engraved on the receiver as in Joe F.

You can no longer put "multi". You can still switch to different calibers/uppers whenever you want, as long as you can still put it back to it's original registered configuration. If you register it as a 5.56mm 10.5" barrel and no longer own a 5.56mm 10.5" barrel then you've made a permanent change and must notify the ATF.Thanks for the write-up. I have heard it is appropriate to put "multi" when it asks for caliber, so you can basically swap whatever upper on the lower. Is this correct? Also, what do you do if you are unsure on the length of the upper you are going to use? Don't you just register the lower? Thanks for any direction.
Sorry my post refers to AR-platform rifles.
I did not know this. I was just kicking myself last week, because I want to build a 300 blackout shorty for this lower as well and thought I was going to have to send an amendment.You can no longer put "multi".

If you're unsure of the barrel length you need to figure it outYes you are registering the lower but you are registering the lower to build a complete firearm and they want to know the barrel length and caliber.
my understanding is that you want to go with the shortest barrel you intend to use on that lower when you do the paperwork, ie. can't decide if you want a 7.5 in barrel or a 10? Go with the 7.5 to start with, and you can add the 10 (and be covered, because it is longer than it was "registered" with) at a later date, as long as you still own the 7.5. If I'm wrong someone please let me know.If you're unsure of the barrel length you need to figure it outYes you are registering the lower but you are registering the lower to build a complete firearm and they want to know the barrel length and caliber.

Your current Trust will workI already have an irrevocable trust set up for my family. Will that existing trust work for this purpose as well? In other words, can I add the SBR provisions to my existing trust or does another trust have to be created? Not sure how all this works. Thanks.
Hey Wahoo, thanks for the quick response!Your current Trust will work

Sorry for the delay. Whatever the for says.....do that. So if it says sign and print do that. I honestly don't remember what the for says and it may be an error in my write-up.I included the 5330.20 just in case.
One question left though, are you sure that you need to sign in BOTH 7 & 8 or should you sign in 7 and print your name in 8?
Anybody?So what would be different in SC?
