stealthy1 3,964 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 They dont work, not accurate after you chop the barrel Quote Link to post
fez123 0 Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 did you try and make one Quote Link to post
ssssh1forthepot 0 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I think it would probably be illegal aswell, Because air rifles have a limit of 12ftp and pistols are 6ftp, by chopping it down you would in effect be making it into a pistol. Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 did you try and make one As kids we were up for any thing, so one of our gang came up with the idea of big air pistols, so we chopped down our riffles, big mistake, couldn't hit a barn after that, never mind the barn door Quote Link to post
Guest Scuba1 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Other then loosing accuracy, power, more noise, and making the thing illegal, its a great project. ATB Michael Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 1) you'll loose accuracy due to chopping the crown off 2) you'll loose power 3) if you chop it off too much, it'll be illegal As Mike says, a perfect project then! Quote Link to post

Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 only if the stock is sawn off as well , then yes its an fac pistol Quote Link to post
chimp 299 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 not sure if this correct but as long it doesnt go under a certain length then it is ok . pistols have been banned for a while but you can now buy a colt 1911 with a 12"barrel and a bit of wire as a extended stock lol feck that!!
