I believe you have to permanently prevent the action from cycling and obstruct the barrel. When I inquired about doing so I was told I would have to weld the bolt to the action preventing the bolt hand from being lifted and I would have to weld a steel plug into the barrel. They also told me I would have to weld to an ASTM spec of a certain depth and bead size to prevent someone from grinding the welds out. Then I would have to have the firearm verified by a qualified gunsmith who then in turn would have to submit the paperwork to the CFO. Anyways I decided to abandon the project as it was too much of a hassle for an old Cooey .22
Granted this was when the registry still applied to non restricted firearms. Not sure if the process is the same now.
