clarification needed...
Umm... Isn't there another legal limit to how long the rifle can be from muzzle to buttplate? 26 1/2" gets me from the muzzle to the end of the stock tang... and then the stock starts...and adds another 13 inches or so... |

NO. However, I will clarify a little more clearly! LOL... The overall length MUST not be less than 26" from the muzzle to the farthest part of the stock. Add 1/8" for good measure. The barrel (all permanent parts of it) must be at least 16" long (plus a hair)...Best measured with the hammer cocked and inserting a dowel into the barrel and marking it where it exits the muzzle. |

over all length must be 26" MINIMUM, as d.a. stated.
being a "rifle", it must be designed to be fired from the shoulder. you can shorten your mak's buttstock an inch or two and still be over the legal minimum length required. |

Yep, that's me, a munchkin
Seriously, the stock is a fiberform and has about 1.5-2" too long a trigger pull. Plus I need another project after I get the Comp C mounted... IT seems like a cool idea to put my own quarter inch steel buttplate on the stock long with a proper sling ring... Or I may just order KVARs short stock set and internals... Ah well, we shall see... |

What if it has a folding stock?
My Norinco is only 25 1/8" when the stock is folded.........  BISHOP |

As I understand it a pre-ban is excluded and grandfather-ed and a post ban can't have a folding stock unless it is pinned and can't fold anymore...(But others here know more than me as you can see from the prior posts)

If you put a 74 style brake on you can pin it closed, and still be legal

Where is the law that says it has to be fired from the shoulder? |
