I'm considering SBR'ing a lower or two in the next 6-8 months (pending availability of funds). Never having done this before, and knowing I like to plan ahead, I've got a few questions that I'm not finding solid answers to. I'm hoping you wonderful NWFA folks can help me make this nice and simple.
1. For an AR lower, do I have to select a specific caliber? I want to be able to swap uppers as I please and would prefer not to be restricted.
2. I've heard you have to select a minimum barrel length for your SBR - but can install any barrel longer than that, so long as it doesn't go below the minimum. Is this correct? Why not choose, say 4" and call it good?
3. When do you get your engraving done? After you get the stamp?
4. Any recommendations for folks that do a good job engraving at a decent price?
Any other important information I should know that I haven't addressed here?
Thanks in advance!
