Go 16. Less unburnt powder flash , good all around accuracy, best for generalized targeting. Just my opinion as others may think smaller is better.

Yes. If it's a permanent change in barrel length then it's prudent to notify the ATF of the change.

Get the 16". Put in your Form 1. Wait and shoot the 16". When the form 1 comes back, order your 10.5", and shorten your 16" to a 14.5".
