Some of you might recognize these boomsticks from previous posts over the last 2 years. Unfortunately my previous account was banned as someone thought I was shortening firearms illegally (appealed decision). In the meantime, I’d like to once again offer the legalese.

Firearms CAN legally be shortened in Canada. You cannot cut the barrel(s) below 18” on a manual action, or 18.5” on a semi auto (you can cut a semi auto between 18”-18.4”, but then you have to register it as restricted). The overall length, regardless of action, cannot be cut below 26”.

Please see all tape measure measurements to confirm these firearms are completely legal.

I think 410 break actions are a lot more rare and expensive than you'd think!!

You should be able to find single-shot ones from Turkey pretty easy for sub-$200. Hell, I recall seeing some with short barrels on them already.

That's true! But I fear any double  barrels are going to be far more than double the price :(

Someone could always take one of the 12 ga ones and put adaptors in it to shoot 20ga or 410, but you still have the big heavy barrels  then
