ruger 10=22 bull pup stock

[skeetgunner]

Another simple test: can the rifle be fired without the stock attached? If yes, its a prohibited stock. If no, then its legal rifle.

The Tavor can't be fired without the stock, because the stock is the receiver. Sort of like a Storm. The 10/22 in a BP stock can be fired with the stock removed.

Bullpups do not have separate stocks.

You're referring to factory bullpup firearms like the G-22?

2. Any rifle, shotgun or carbine stock of the type known as the "bull-pup" design, being a stock that, when combined with a firearm, reduces the overall length of the firearm such that a substantial part of the reloading action or the magazine-well is located behind the trigger of the firearm when it is held in the normal firing position.

Does that part make any sense? As OAL seems to have nothing to do with a "substantial part of the reloading action or the magazine-well" being located behind the trigger

I was thinking the exact same thing (is that safe to admit?). My point-of-view was always to lengthen the barrel if a bullpup stock was attached to fix the OAL issue, but then that "substantial part" clause came about - which really seems like an "and/or" clause, but I'm not going so far as to help 'them' with 'their' definitions.

Not just yet...

Isn't there a sticky somewhere explaining this?
