Changing the barrel absolutely falls under any other alteration

You’re contradicting yourself between posts #31 & #37, they’re either both NR or both prohib, like I said

Well that may be. Good luck.

Why not just buy it and see if you can just walk out the door with it.....or have to call it in.....then leave it...and come back another day to pick it up...

Question answered...lol

I get your point tho, it is kinda crazy trying to figure out their sense to all of this, but I do like how we can buy a 12" ,and put a full stock on it...for an awesome short bush rifle...non restricted

In the US, you cant install a full stock on it....so pretty cool we can up here

Also to add, unless you are ever in a really bad situation, no one is ever going to know if you finish it properly. The potential problem IMO is that for me this is a back country gun. If I had to use it, I imagine there could be a MNR investigation, and it may led them to connect the dots. I could get end up fighting a prohibited firearms charge for defending my life. That would suck.

Man you give bad advice. You should stop because the I saw some guy post this on the internet legal defence does not usually work. Most shotgun barrels for example , that are shorter than 18.5" are stamped from the manufacturer with the barrel length on them to avoid confusion on inspection. And we all are aware that putting a pistol grip on an 8.5" shotgun is considered altering the gun and thus changing its classification.

This is not advice. It should be clear to you, as it does not say "I recommend doing...."

Show me where I said anything to conflict that.

Maybe reading comprehension is the problem.

Show me any post in this thread where I suggest anyone do anything at all. Nothing I posted is advice, only my interpretation of regulations.

In fact these are pretty clear, it's not advice or fact.

Sure, sounds reasonable. I hope that argument works if you need to convince a judge. "Ahh c'mon judge, cutting 6 inches of my gun is the same as adding a 1/4 inch butt plate. Why you bustin' my balls"?

Sawing or cutting is listed specifically. 'Sawed off' instantly brings criminal to mind. LEOs have no idea in most cases. They see your factory barrel and extended butt plate, they say thanks and walk away. They see your noticeably cut barrel on a 20inch gun they may want to ask some questions and earn some gold stars. In literal terms, they may both be argued prohibited, but in reality would not likely be treated as. YMMV

Well that may be. Good luck.

My reading and comprehension are both fine thanks. It's just not worth my time to cut and paste all of the words you used and micro analyze them like some kind of pseudo intellectual jerk. By posting your opinion on legal questions, you might give the impression that you actually know what you are talking about, and someone else might actually believe that you could be correct or even worse want to share those incorrect views. But you go ahead. Its a relatively free world. Perhaps you should re read your own post that I quoted, and explain why you would be carrying a self admitted prohibited firearm.

Every one of my posts I am clearly stating it would be prohibited. I was obviously saying not to do it in every post, other than the one you focus on, where I said that if you did it, you likely would never get caught, unless carrying it and had to use it.

I never suggested carrying it, and still don't suggest cutting it.

This is not a legalese forum, it is a dealer's page, on a dealer's sale thread. If the question posed wanted a legal opinion, it should have been in legalese.

Reading comprehension.

One thing you get right, I am a jerk.
