What is the smallest restricted handgun?

I had a quick look at the guns that are exceptions to the prohibited rules according to:

http://www.cfc-cafc.gc.ca/info_for-renseignement/factsheets/r&p_e.asp

Certain handguns for use in international sporting competitions are excluded from the prohibition affecting the short-barreled and 25 or 32 calibre handguns. These handguns therefore are considered restricted firearms under the Criminal Code. These handguns are the:

Make / Model / Calibre
1. Benelli / MP 90 S / 32 S&W Long
2. Domino / OP 601 / 22 Short
3. Erma / ESP 85 A / 32 S&W Long
4. FAS / CF 603 / 32 S&W Long
5. FAS / 601 / 22 Short
6. Hammerli-Walther / 201 / 22 Short
7. Hammerli-Walther / 202 / 22 Short
8. Hammerli / 230 / 22 Short
9. Hammerli / 230-1 / 22 Short
10. Hammerli / 230-2 / 22 Short
11. Hammerli / 232 / 22 Short
12. Hammerli / 280 / 32 S&W Long
13. Hammerli / P240 / 32 S&W Long
14. Hammerli / SP-20 / 22 LR
15. Hammerli / SP-20 / 32 S&W Long
16. High Standard / Olympic / 22 Short
17. Manurhin / MR 32 Match / 32 S&W Long
18. Pardini / GP / 22 Short
19. Pardini / GP Schumann / 22 Short
20. Pardini / HP / 32 S&W Long
21. Pardini / MP / 32 S&W Long
22. Sako / 22-32 / 22 Short
23. Sako / 22-32 / 22 LR
24. Sako / 22-32 / 32 S&W Long
25. Sako / Tri-Ace / 22 Short
26. Sako / Tri-Ace / 22 LR
27. Sako / Tri-Ace / 32 S&W Long
28. Unique / DES 69 / 22 LR
29. Unique / VO 79 / 22 Short
30. Unique / DES 32 U / 32 S&W Long
31. Vostok / TOZ 96 / 32 S&W Long
32. Walther / GSP / 22 LR
33. Walther / GSP / 22 Short
34. Walther / GSP / 32 S&W Long
35. Walther / OSP / 22 LR
36. Walther / OSP / 22 Short
37. Walther / OSP / 32 S&W Long

But looking at them they are all full-on target pistols, and most look longer that 105mm anyway, so there were no compacts to be found.

Barrels are often 101mm or less, but the OAL is generally quite long since the mags are in front of the trigger.

I sure hope so, that's the main reason I got it :eek:

OK next question does anyone know the IPSC (NOT the USPSA) status of the H&K P7M8? I've determined that it falls into Stock Service Pistol for IDPA but I don't know what class I would shoot in under IPSC.

http://www.ipsc.org/proddiv.php

Lists it as "Not Approved", although apparently there was a short time in 2003 when it was approved. So if it is not production where would it fall?

Chris

P.S. Anyone want to sell me their H&K P7M8 Jubilee or a Glock 19 Pro?
