I’m thinking of SBR-ing my Ruger Charger, I’ve registered several form 1 SBR’s and suppressors in the past but due to health issues I’ve been out of the loop on all things NFA for 3-4 years … I understand the $200 tax has been lifted and I’ve heard engraving requirements for factory receivers might be going away also?
Is there anything else changed or changing?

TIA

Yes, there are a bunch of changes in process.

The ATF currently has comments open for the engraving.

We need everyone to go and make a comment for it. Looks like there is currently only 444 comments left

I submitted a response. Hope it helps. :-)
