There was a thread a while ago that had a post listing the FRT numbers for 10-22s with different barrel lengths under 470 mm) I can'r seem to find it any more & need the number for the ER Shaw 11.5 inch barrels and another with a 14 incher. Can anybody provide a link? Many thanks
 
This is intruiging. Do we really need to re-register it ? In my case, i purchased a compact model (the 16" model). The reg cert says "less than 470mm". So if i put the ER Shaw 11.5" barrel on her, it does NOT change category (i.e. it remains non-restricted). So is it necessary to advise the CFC each time I swap barrels ? Maybe my understanding of FRT is limited... aren't FRT suppose to reflect production models ? or are FRT numbers put out each time a firearm is modified. A good example would be when we cut-down the barrel of an M14S... is there an FRT for 18.5" M14S ? what about if you cut it to 18.75" or 18.8", etc... ?
 
The FRT for an 11.5" unrestricted version is: 35108-17

I happen to know this because I called them last week to get a new cert. sent for mine with a custom barrel made by bits of pieces.
 
I agree Sniper1 technically you don't need to re-register since the firearm class doesn't change - the overall length is still over 26"- even though the FRT will be different. However in my case the registration certificate says barrel over 470mm but the replacement barrel is well under that length. I'm just being cautious since most LEOs are unfamiliar with the law and the discrepancy would be enough for an uniformed LEO to seize it and even charge me which would be a hassle and possibly cause me legal costs until they were proven wrong. Call me cautious if you will but i'd rather go threough the effort especially since it's free except for my time and the CFC's. If I were in your case and the slip for the original rifle said under 470mm there is less incentive to re-register altohough agiain the FRT will change once you put on an 11.5 inch barrel.
