The Franklin Armory Reformation RS11 (brand part no. 0010043BLK) is an 11.5-inch 5.56 NATO firearm built around Franklin Armory’s patented NRS barrel technology — straight-cut lands and grooves that make the Reformation legally neither a rifle nor a shotgun, so it wears a true shoulder stock with no NFA paperwork. Franklin Armory ships the RS11 with custom features ready out of the box: the Binary AR-Elite trigger fires one round on pull and one on release, a Triumvir flash hider caps the muzzle, and an adjustable Magpul SL-K stock handles length of pull. The 30+1 capacity runs standard AR-pattern magazines, and the whole firearm is 100 percent American made. Among compact semi-auto rifles and pistols, the Reformation stands alone in its classification — short-barreled, stocked, and Title I.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Reformation an SBR or NFA item? No. Because the NRS barrel uses straight-cut lands and grooves instead of conventional rifling, the Reformation is federally classified as neither a rifle nor a shotgun — the 11.5-inch barrel and shoulder stock combination requires no NFA registration or tax stamp.

Is the binary trigger legal everywhere? Binary triggers are restricted or banned in some states — confirm your state and local laws before ordering.

What magazines does it use? Standard AR-pattern magazines, with a 30-round magazine included.
