Shitpost / Memes New Camping Gun

Post image

They messed up all my usual camping guns so I’m looking to shorten up grandpas ol duck gun. How short can this be without getting in any trouble?

I could be wrong, but 18" is the shortest you can do yourself legally. As long as overall length is still legal, with that stock it would be. If you go shorter at a gunsmith it will have to be registered as restricted and then can no longer be your camping gun.

Whoa there that’s for manually operating guns not semi autos. Semi autos need to be 18.5

Ah yes, my bad. That 0.5" is what turns it from a hunting firearm to a tactical assault style weapon of war deemed unstable for public ownership. Plus it's 0.5" easier to conceal in my jenko jeans.

What a country we live in.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse, the police will be there momentarily
