    Oh and by the way, first sentence of the advice I gave to "haha49" was: "You should contact the CFC-RCMP as it's a grey section of the law."
    No, I didn't mean you or I would have said so.

    Allright. Good night!

    As for the TNW Aero Rifle, do we know if it will be classified as a restricted or unrestricted rifle?

    For myself, I own a Ruger 10/22 with the Krinker Plinker kit on it:



    As you can see, the rifle looks like a "AKS-74U Krinkov" and gets a folding stock and 2 barrels.
    One short barrel with a ½ x 28 tpi tread at the end of the barrel to fit the Krinkov Muzzlebrake or a fake can.
    Also there is a longer barrel that comes with the kit which you can also screw a fake can on it.

    When I bought the kit, they included a little 10mm pin with a letter. In that letter it stated that for Canadian Customers, you have to install this pin permanently into the stock (so it stays open) if you want to install the shorter barrel so the firearm can stay Non-Restricted. As for the second barrel (the longer one), you can fold the stock, as even folded it is respecting the legal lenghts for non-restricted.

    SO... Back in 2011, I talked with someone at the CFC-RCMP (Miramichi), they told me I have to pin the stock, if I want to install the shorter barrel so it stays non-restricted.
    If ever I wanted to have the short barrel WITH the folding stock working, I'll have to call them to change the status of the firearm from non-restricted to restricted...

    From their Point Of View, even if you're shooting at the shooting club, the minute you install the shorter "restricted" barrel, your rifle becomes restricted and you have to advise the CFC-RCMP.

    But my point of view is the same as yours. If you head to the range and change the barrel over there and after, you change it back to his non-restricted status when leaving the shooting range, you should be ok.
    It's only if you want to keep your restricted barrel on and leave the range with it, that you have 30 days to notify them:




    http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/r.../FullText.html
    You have 30 days to report it because They're not open 24 hours a day 7 days a week. If you changed it and it's a holiday or weekend you can't because there not open. They also close at 5:00pm your local time so if you call after your out of luck.. You would have to call another day just because you could do this and some people do doesn't mean I do it.

    Most likely 16 inches for the American market.

    From the CGN Rules.

    Just sayin' Eh!

    The following topics will not be tolerated. Violation will result in immediate and permanent suspension. Some quasi legal/ grey/downright illegal examples that are specifically not tolerated are:

    Swapping non-restricted barrel for restricted barrel at gun range.

If you want to change it back they might ask for you to have the firearm verfied you take it to someone who can do that they verfiy that there is a non restricted barrel length on it and it gets changed. Thats it...


    Now here is the tricky part some people do this.. They leave the non restricted barrel on the firearm because once it changes you need a authorization to transport. So they leave it non restricted head to the range put on the restricted barrel and before leaveing they switch it back that way they shoot at the range with a restricted firearm and don't have to go through the hassle of getting paper work to take it out because it's non restricted in transport....

    Since it uses an ar buffer for its recoil spring I think this could be made 10mm pretty easily with a heavier spring and a reamer.

    Just need a compatible magwell really...
