Rebarelling a prohib HK P7M10?

[Capt.Canuck]

I have a line on a nice HK P7M10, but it measured just short so it's a prohib.

Is rebarrelling an option? If so, who can do it?

TIA.

Probably easier to just have it measured correctly.

P7 pistols are "restricted". I went through this with CFC when I moved to Canada, was told the P7 was "prohibited", and sold my PSP. Later, I was told that it was in fact "restricted", and I own a registered P7M8 now. The measurement is close, but the barrel is "restricted" length. Measure it by placing a rod down the barrel on the pistol with the breech closed, which is how Canadian firearms law requires the measurement to be done. Do not measure by taking off the slide and measuring the barrel by itself.

Dont listen to these guys.. I take it off your hands for $200.00 LOL.. Just kidding... They are Restricted.. not prohibited.. as the 2 astute CGNers have said.. get it measured correctly and reclassified..

Take it to a gunsmith, get it measured, verified and re-registered. Before you do make sure you have another prohib registered, so you don't lose your 12.6.

Sorry for the confusion guys, I should have been more specific in my initial post.

1. The owner of the pistol has his 12.6 and is interested in selling.

2. I don't have my 12.6.

3. The owner of the pistol has had it measured and apparently it's been ruled to be prohib.

I'm not sure how it was measured or by whom, but I'll see if the issue can be revisited.

Thanks for all the input.

Great advice about loosing prohib status.......Remind the seller!

Have it remeasured. A few years ago the CFC was reminded they have to round up on barrel length and P7 pistols became restricted. Once it is reverified it will be restricted.

The problem with the original measurement was probably that the tube was measured with the slide open. The barrel must be measure from the breech face to the crown.
