    And that could be also identified as to how the Police find it. if its fully retracted then that would be the length. Personally I wouldn't want to spend 10K fighting it in Court. Cause you would have to prove it. At the very least they would probably revoke the licence and see what happens in Court. If they determine its a breach, then there goes the licence.
    But in your theory, then a folding stock on an AK47 would be fine as its measured at its longest length. I certainly don't see that working out or the Police allowing that.
