Perhaps I'm not reading this correctly; but, it appears to me we are permitted to alter firearms as long as they remain within the specs. This goes contrary to everything I have been told from Gunsmiths to CFC personnel. How do other readers interpret the use of comas in this sentence?

You can alter a non-res firearm any way you please, so long as it remains longer than 26" in overall length. You may cut a barrel down but no further than 18". A factory produced barrel that is shorter is perfectly ok, so long as the overall length stays above 26".

My question is if you cut a barrel below 18.5" but above 18" did you just create a restricted firearm?
