Its measured at its shortest whilst still functioning. Which is why folding ( still shoots ) stock is different to taken down ( usually not shootable )Sixshot6 wrote:Henry repeating arms made a modern version of the AR 7 http://www.henryrifles.co.uk/henry-u-s- ... 9-inc-vat/ovenpaa wrote:The 300/12" is a given for S1 and the 600/24" applies to the firearm once assembled and ready to be used and is based on the minimum possible length of the assembled firearm so a folding/collapsing stock that gives less than the prescribed 600/24" is bad news.
Just thought, didn't Anschütz make a take down rifle in .22LR, the 520 maybe and there is the Marlin as well as the Ar-7 which is a superb little thing.
So 12/24 is assembled then? I know a collapsing/folding stock would not count as its still "Assembled". But actually dissembled as is not in use does not count I presume?

Ditto that - I had a lovely one complete with S&B scope and Suhler claw mounts which I sold in a moment of madness to a guy who really didn't deserve it.dromia wrote:
The Mannlicher Schoenauer Model 1903 take down is another fine rifle and I always regret selling mine.
Re: Takedown rifles
Agreed.
One of my big regrets is not buying a 1903 take down complete with S&B and claw mounts when I was offered it 7-8 years ago...

Re: Takedown rifles
Might a Bergara BX11 be something to consider?

Handi Rifle? single screw to assemble/disassemble, multiple calibres and as it's the same thread as a camera tripod you can get one with a knurled knob so no screwdriver required :)
There's room for all Gods creatures, next to the mash and gravy :)
