    If im wrong than I will be so happy about this =D
    Since it's a bolt action, they can add a muzzle break to make the folded length greater than 26 inches.

    Any chance Q is able to sell some longer barrels in 6.5cw? I'm very tempted to wait for the larger Fix in 6.5 PRC.

    Pretty sure the standard for measuring overall length is without the muzzle brake or flash hider.

    It's not. Muzzle breaks and buttstocks effect overall length (OAL), but not barrel length. Important for non-restricted, manually-operated firearms (less common issue to run into), not pertinent to determining barrel length (significantly more common issue for semi-automatic firearms) when determining classification.

    >26" OAL includes the gun in it's shortest configuration, including accessories. Buttstocks collapsed or folded.

    >18.5" Barrel Length measures just the barrel, determined by dropping a cleaning rod down the bore on a closed bolt, and measuring the rod at the muzzle NOT INCLUDING muzzle devices.

    This has always been the standard, but it is often misinterpreted or misconstrued, usually by confusing the two standards (OAL vs barrel length, non-restricted manually operated vs semi-auto).

    I find it weird we measure barrel length without a muzzle device and overall length with.

    The Americans also measure differently as well. It’s frustrating.

    Or just buy a Ruger American Ranch in .308 for under $800 and have pretty much the same weight and size rifle with money left over to buy everything else you need to hunt!
