    Sad state of affairs when that's what a classification comes down to...

    With the other classifications I can't see this being an issue . . . now how long we have to wait from them to come around to it, .. *shrugs* who knows.

    Thanks
    According to what the CFO office told me when I was talking to them about my ACR.
    The 30 day rule is to give you time to take the rifle to a certified firearms verifier, it is not a free pass to do whatever you want.

    When going from restricted to non restricted the firearm remains restricted until the CFO has completed the process and the rifle has been removed from the restricted registry, so use is still restricted to the range only no matter how long the barrel is or what category the rifle technically fits into.

    When switching from non restricted to restricted you may only take the rifle for inspection during the 30 days, if you take a rifle that was non restricted and install a restricted length barrel and go to the range with it and get stopped for whatever reason you are in possession of an unregistered restricted firearm which I believe they said makes it a prohibited firearm which is a bad thing for you to try to explain your way out of.

    The 30 day period is not a free pass to do whatever you want as long as you put the non restricted barrel back on in 29 days or less.
    As pavement surfer mentioned about prices though, there really is absolutely no reason to want a restricted length MV-s upper since you can buy a complete restricted AR for less money than the cost of a MV-s upper. So why go through all the hassles of dealing with the CFO switching back and forth?
    To go from restricted to non restricted was typically taking about 3 months, I'm not sure if they are still taking that long but it's a pain in the ass.

    This might sound vain, but my takeaway from this is that if I want to pop a r length barrel or upper onto something for the sake of handling/taking pics and vids of..then swap back to nr length within 1-29 days I'm within the law without having to reclassify the rifle?

    I'm well aware that having r parts/uppers sitting around for that sole purpose may be pointless to some, but along the lines of Ben's rather apt quote in your sig, looking for facts..don't care about feelings on the matter. Is that what you would consider correct? Planning on calling my cfo for clarification, but never hurts to ask the round table.
