And cylinders don't count for revolver barrel length.

Almost bought a prohib by accident once. Maybe I should have.

No prohib status required.

Yup. I just mentioned the Redhawk specifically, since it was the picture he posted.

I think it's actually pretty funny how it all worked out.

When the laws were written; All of the cool handguns had 4" barrels, and all of the cool rifles had 16" barrels.
So they got the full wrath of the prohib and restricted classifications.

The lawmakers never figured on manufacturers making Canadian versions that were 4.2" and 18.6" to get around the law.

Looks good on them.

4" guns are also legal.........if you have the right numbers on your license.

Not quite true.....
Minimum is 106 mm = 4.173 inches.
Everything up to 105 mm is prohibited.

Although that would depend on temperature.
