"lethal BARRELLED" - that's what it says does it not. It's a description just like "rifled barrel" so what exactly IS a lethal barrel??
The barrel isn't being described as lethal, the gun is being described as both lethal and barrelled. I suppose there really should be a comma between the words.

First line of 1968 Act;

"In this Act, the expression “firearm” means a lethal BARRELLED weapon of any description from which any shot, bullet or other missile can be discharged"
should the question actually be; where does a barrel change to being a chamber?
