Greg223 4 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 is the powder not fully burnt at 16.5 inches ive always been told that Quote Link to post
halamrose 24 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 best barrel length has got to depend on what it's loaded with. Firearms act seems to say 30cm which would be 11.81 inches. http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1968/27 funny how the act uses cm and inches in differant places. Quote Link to post
