Thanks for clarifying guys. I did read that in the NFA FAQ pages along with various NFA stickies here, which is where I got the idea to only engrave the uppers. My confusion came when reading this thread, more specifically AC's post #20. Then I reread BigWaylon's EForm sticky and his post about engraving. Towards the bottom it says:
"...That simply means if you choose to engrave on an AR upper or barrel, you'd have to engrave every upper/barrel you plan to use. That's why most will engrave the lower receiver..."
I originally understood the above to mean only the SBR uppers need to be engraved, then AC's post & a couple others made me start doubting my understanding.
So AC (rest his soul) was incorrect?
It makes me wonder why engraving uppers/barrels isn't more popular? Not that I ever plan on selling a registered lower but it elevates the devaluing of the lower, along with hassles of shipping one to be engraved.
