Looking to buy a 10 or 12 inch threaded barrel for my 10/22 custom build. Where can i find one of these things ? Fab has an 8.5 which is too short i think. Is there a law against barrel size ?

No , as long as it is factory made and not chopped down by you in the garage.

So in plain english as long as the total lenth is 26 inches and you didnt cut the barrel it doesnt matter how long the barrel is ? Now is that with the stock fully collapsed ? lol
If the stock is collapsed and less than 26 inches then it is a restricted, therefore more eviler than when it is fully extended. That is why the klinker plinker kits with short barrelled folding stocks have their stocks welded so it cannot be folded and never shorter than 26 inches.
So in other words, a gun that cannot easily be made less than 26 inches and has a factory barrel are fine. A gun that is less and with a cut barrel is a baby killer.

It looks like tactical solutions is the only barrel i have found so far at 16.5 only problem is finding a place that sells them that will also ship to Canada ! 
Bits of Pieces out in B.C. will make you a custom barrel in 11.5".
I have one in the mail (somewhere, CP seems to have lost it).
I have the tacsol barrel on my other 10/22. Its VERY overspec, which means it is tighter than a nun's... well... you know.

You will not get a factory barrel out of the US that is shorter than 16". Under US law a rifle with a barrel less than 16" makes it a SBR (short barrelled rifle). To make or own a SBR, you need a Class II permit from BTAF, which costs $200 every time you transfer the firearm. This is almost identical to permits needed for full auto in the US.

No US law doesnt make the barrel an SBR, it makes it an SBR if its added to a gun while in the USA. The barrels themselves can be bought and sold in the USA without any paperwork.
They just can't be exported for use on a rifle.

Hawkteck just emailed me back saying its against US law for barrels to be shipped out of country. Is that true ?
Sure is, I am amazed you can get any firearm parts out of the states.
Can always try a WTB ad in EE.
Yes and no. Unless it's for a shotgun, you will require an DOS export permit.
The only way to get an export permit is to be a DOS-registered exporter. And most people, and most businesses, aren't one of those.

Isn't Fabsports expecting a bunch of barrel in various lenght? I might have to give him a call...
** Edit **
just got off the phone with Farbice. Seems like 12", 16" and 20" are on the way... standard bull, fluted bull and 'regular' profile...

Hahaha yeaa i found that out today too. Didnt want to say anything to increase my chances of actually getting one. Things seem like they go fast ! 12 inch would be sweet for my build but i dono how bad it will effect accuracy. Might have to go with the 16.
