So, I'm exploring the possibility of purchasing a couple 80% lowers. Not worried about the machining process, got that handled. My question is, if I were to engrave/stamp/machine a logo of some sort, and also a serial number (for my own purposes) would it then become a manufactured firearm? Serial number only in case of theft and/or identification purposes. Also, is there a way to prove that its an 80% lower to law enforcement once completed, so as not to have to go thru the hassle of being accused of having a firearm with no manufacture name/location/serial numbers? I'd really rather not fight that battle if I don't have to.

Best thing to do is to get a hold of Local BATFE. Some Agents define the problem differently, but in any case make sure you go the distance to making it Extra-Legal, even if you are told something isn't necessary..
