Do the licence and registration requirements apply to conversion kits?
It depends on what is in the conversion kit. If the kit contains a frame or receiver, you need a licence to possess it and it has to be registered. You do not need a licence or registration certificate if the kit simply contains parts, such as a barrel, unless the barrel is also a receiver – for example, the barrel of a percussion-cap muzzle-loader.
