.003 inch depth, minimum 1/16 inch high. Must be readily visible without disassembling the rifle. Can be engraved on barrel, frame, or receiver. I always opt for inside the trigger well.
It's all in the NFA handbook section 7.4
7.4.2 Additional information
. Certain additional information must
also be conspicuously placed on
the frame, receiver, or barrel of the firearm by engr
aving, casting, stamping (impressing), that is, they
must be placed in such a manner that they are
wholly unobstructed from plain view. For firearms
manufactured on or after January
30, 2002, this information must be to
a minimum depth of .003 inch.
The additional information includes:
(1) The model, if such designation has been made;
(2) The caliber or gauge;
(3) The manufacturer’s name
(or recognized abbreviation); and
(4) The city and State (or recognized abbrevia
tion) where the manufacturer maintains its place
of business.
