Compact Carbines.....Show 'Em!

[SHELL SHUCKER]

I enjoy using short, trapper type carbines for hunting and recreational shooting. They carry well and can be very accurate, plus they look very cool when set-up right.
Show pics of your shorties (16 in. or shorter barrels) and mention what they're used for. I.E. Big game, small game, pests, targets etc.

Here's my growing selection of shorties.

Rossi M92 16" .44 Mag. Deer and small game as well as plinking.

Browning BL22 16" .22LR Super on squirrels and feral cats.

.45 ACP Lee Enfield 14" Cat splat fever! Grey squirrels go pop.

CZ 452 Scout 16" .22LR Deadly accurate all-round fun gun.

Stevens 305F 13" .22 Mag. Shoots super tight & vaporizes squirrels.

I'm getting the urge to build a shorty .458 Magnum now!

Feral cats? I have some of those in my back yard.


Where did you get the .45 ACP Lee Enfield?

I built this rifle using a barrel and mag adaptor from North Shore Barrels.
It's a hoot to shoot pests with.

One of my favorite pics of my grouse gun:

10-22, stripped and buffed receiver, Stainless 11.5" ER Shaw barrel, PC rail, VQ extended bold handle and extractor, Leupold FX-II 2.5X20mm ultralight, prw low rings, polished trigger internals, sanded down (checkering off) butler creek target stock, bolt buffer and hex take down screw installed.

Feral cats? My neighbour has like 10 feral cats. Wanna come and dust a few?

Yes, the .45 Enfield is non-restricted, as the barrel was sent from Shilen
as a 14" blank (not a long blank later shortened). The overall length of
the beasty is 31 3/4" so it easily fits the overall length rules.

Marlin 1895GS in 45-70.

Durable, potent and fits well on the handle bar gun rack on my quad.

Shell Shucker,

Cool looking rifle but it is not legal to hunt with here in BC we have to have a minimum 12" barrel.

Shell Shucker,

The sights on this rifle are a Williams reciever sight (Model FP-GR-TK)
combined with a Marbles 570" high, Contour front sight.
They work excellent with this rifle.

I'm into the T/C Contender carbines = no lever/bolt/semi-auto/pump action even with a 21" - 22" barrel they are still extremely short.

Here is a pic of one of my Contender's with a 14" barrel in 45 Colt which makes the barrel 2" longer than legal to hunt with here in BC.

.45 ACP Lee Enfield 14" Cat splat fever! Grey squirrels go pop.

As a small time millsurp collector sporterised enfields always made me want to puke. Never have I had a desire to own one, until I seen this. This is a COOL F%$#*&G RIFLE.
