Dlask 8" barrel build help

NO! See post number 19. A Mare's Leg is non-restricted and it is under 660mm. The reason that an 8" shotgun with a pistol grip is restricted is because the RCMP reclassified it as a handgun, not because it is less than 660mm. They were originally non-restricted until the RCMP came up with this ploy.

I think if you remove the buttstock completely you have turned it into a handgun (restricted). But a short stock and short barrel that add up to less than 660mm would be NR.
KIDD makes a 6" barrel

Just a question, have you short a 22 short barrel gun? I had the dlask 8" and it was crazy loud
So loud that I needed ear protection. Im thinking my 5.56 was less loud. I think a 6" would be too loud without protection but its your ears.
My guess is the 6" barrel makes the gun restricted or even prohibited. I had a 8" barrel with an axiom stock which made it less than 26" From what I was told. Unless I pinned the stock, the gun was prohibited and not restricted. I would call CFO and ask. However the laws Ive found are not really understood by those who inforce them. So it could be a gamble and you could run into a LE officer who thinks he knows the laws but could be wrong himself.
Im sure some of you have stories about that!

I have an 8" barrel on my SR-22 and it is louder than the stock length barrel, but I also shoot a .22 pistol with a 5" barrel, so it does not bother me. I must admit that I do always wear ear protection when shooting them. I have a 10.5" 5.56 AR-15, now that is LOUD
As far as LE officers and NR rifles under 26" - I would carry a copy of the applicable criminal code to help avoid unfortunate misunderstandings. I carry a copy of the RCMP letter regarding magazine capacity in my range bag, because I use 10 round pistol mags in my 5.56 rifle, for the same reason.
