    Continuing to add clarifying information as needed. Added snippets from EForms bulletins to address:
    1. What name to use as applicant
    2. How to choose manufacturer
    3. Details about attachments

    Great post BigWaylon, and I thank you for helping me out even prior to this post. This will really help people through the process, it answered all the questions I had when I was going through the process.

    Well I just submitted my first ever NFA application in the form of an efile Form 1 for an SBR. I hope the turnaround time on eforms is as quick as they say it is. If so then I should be in business around early July.

    Glad it could help. I made several updates to the original one I posted on ARFCOM. I'll see if I can update the OP with them. Too bad I can't just copy/paste it over here due to some formatting that doesn't work the same.

    ETA: as of Sat 6/28, I think I've added all the other stuff I added to the other site. There was one picture and a couple extra bits of info I learned.

    How many pages? Do you have a scanner?

    If you have a scanner, did you see the info at the bottom of the first half of the guide? Scanning at 200dpi in B&W is plenty clear enough to read. B&W creates a much smaller file than color.

    As close as you are to 3MB, you could also just split it into two files and be done with it.

    There's software out there (I think the full version of Adobe will do it) that allows you to shrink the file, but mine was ok after the first scan using proper settings.

    Just figured it out.

    Selected the pages under "Print" and then re-saved.

    Thanks.
