Man, I missed alot of info in my post. I meant to say that I put a remington factory LEO folder on my 14" shotgun to see and yes, even with the extra 1/4" from the sling point it was still under 26 inces. (about 25 1/4" actually)
I knew the the protusion at the rear of the stock would bring it close, so I had to try. Unfortunately, you need to find an extra inch somewhere to use that stock.
I have heard good things from people about the knoxx stocks though. Cant wait to try one myself.
I have an LEO stock for sale though if you decide you want one.
