    Howsabout just having a nice normal length gun? 762mm is hardly a punt gun now is it... Is this purely fashion? something for 3 gun playtime? or have you lot taken to wearing overcoats and hanging around banks

    Reading these things makes me wonder if people WANT to have greter restrictions placed on firearms owners - take the piss and you get noticed and legislation gets put in place to cover the loophole - and probably erodes the status quo at the same time.

    I'm short and skinny and I like my guns the same way, and there's no logical reason why I shouldn't be allowed to

    Pinning with a blob of weld drilled thru the suppressor thread and barrel thread would work too. if your supp was alloy an alloy tig would be the business, then at least a gunsmith would be able to remove it for maintance if nessary
