It's typical Canadian legalese, unclear and confusing
Or... 'Some folks over think it or just can't /won't believe it's as plain as it's written and insert stuff that isn't there.
AFAIK it's pretty simple.

Fair enough, I don’t like it but I don’t have the funds to challenge it in court if it came to that. Was just letting the OP know my experience relating to his question.
Not hard to understand at all....there's no ambiguity.
If the receiver, which is the registered part, is capable, without machining or modification, of being assembled into a working firearm, then it requires registration, whether bare or with lpk installed.
As to notifying the cfo about bbl length...ummm, I just put this 10.5 upper on yesterday.
...and what if multiple uppers are a choice? Then what do you do?
The modularity of this platform was obviously not considered when creating our system.
Every time you change the upper and leave them together you have 30 days to re-register the rifle.
If you have a stripped receiver it is registered as such and when you complete the said lower with an LPK and try to call the cfo they will explain if you do not have a barrel/upper assembly on the lower it is still registered as a receiver only. Once you have a completed upper on the lower then you have 30 days to re-register as completed rifle. If you disguard the upper in any way you have 30 days to call the CFO to re-register as a receiver only. Now if you strip the lower of the LPK and attempt to call the CFO they will inform you that it is already registered as receiver only.
Simple.
