    I'd err on the safe side and assume. E it is to the muzzle. If police choose to "clarify" the policy with an order in council, you will have a very hard time making it legal again.

    It's a Lithgow 1B single shot that I am looking at shorting myself.
    If the lawyer says it's all good and backs that up with a written statement I'll run with it.
    If the police later pass it into law (762mm to end of muzzle), then no great loss to destroy said Lithgow.
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
