Savage axis 223 doesn't have any rifling at muzzle. **update**

This law relies on honest people.

I don't think any of my barrels have any markings indicating what length they are.

There seems to always be people looking for 12" and 14" 870 barrels and I've often thought that we are a good group of law abiding owners.

I don't know anyone whose chopped a barrel beyond legal limits but thinking about it makes me wonder how they'd ever be caught if they did.

Other than using a pair of calipers to make measurements it would be tough to argue in the field your 14" isn't a factory barrel.

Dlask barrels, even their 22LR are marked with the manufactured barrel length. My dlask 8" for my 1022 and my 9" GSG were marked. I've also seen their shotgun barrels marked.

Like this was brought up with the GSG 16.. How they will tell if you shortened the barrel? Well the serial # on the barrel would come back to being a 16" model.

There are always exceptions to given examples.
I'd say roll marking barrel length is not a widespread manufacturing inclusion.
None of the forearms I've ever owned have had that particular price if information on the firearm anywhere.
