Yeah the guys getting their 18 inch Swiss Carbines rebarreled to 18.5 are getting a machined integrated flash suppressor just like the Non restricted rifle

Criminal Code section 84:
Barrel length
(2) For the purposes of this Part, the length of a barrel of a firearm is
(a) in the case of a revolver, the distance from the muzzle of the barrel to the breach end immediately in front of the cylinder, and
(b) in any other case, the distance from the muzzle of the barrel to and including the chamber,
but does not include the length of any component, part or accessory including any component, part or accessory designed or intended to suppress the muzzle flash or reduce recoil.
AFAIK, "overall length" is not defined in either the criminal code or the regulations. Basic definition for "overall" is "taking everything into account", so that would include butt spacers and anything attached to the muzzle (anything you need a tool to detach). Ravohs had a good concept for it, I think: shortest length of the firearm in its fire-able state.
okay, i misunderstood when you said drill the end of the barrel to have a compensator. We not talking about that, was talking about increasing length of barrels to get through LEGAL length requirements.
drilling or adding slits on the circumference on the barrel is legal and nobody cares about that.
Cheers, it's nothing personal; It just the umpteenth time I've seen this return without anyone having a text/law quote.
My bad, I should have put a picture of what I meant... that would have made it 1000% better!
I did check on this though, since one of my plans for my Valmet is a conversion to a Galil ARM, but with a 18.5000000001" barrel with the last 1.5" being drilled in to make an integral compensator.
Mine as is right now:
What I'd like to have done on the furthest end of the barrel, once cut to 18.5000000001"(essentially making it look like a 17" barrelled rifle with a 1.5" device on the end )
Some have taken it to extremes though, like this example. The MPX has a 9.5" muzzle device, but you get the idea that you could technically bore/drill a barrel in the same fashion, thus keeping the single-barrel piece at 18.5+"

We are still waiting on complete specs for the rifles. As soon as we have them we will follow up with a post. The lower receiver sets are coming in this month and we are hoping to have the barrel specs up shortly. The barrels will be available with a low profile gas block and gas tube. We are also trying to have the barrel nut included. We will advise...

So, we can't buy a complete rifle this weekend???
We can post a rifle on the site with no problem but at this point I do not have all the options/specs that are available. I have no doubt everyone would be happy with what we send out but I think its best to have it all out there so you know exactly what you are receiving. We are on it... Friday before July 4th, it's a little crazy...
Stay tuned..
