Short barrel Thompsons
Howdy all, I'm new to the group since I have to spend most of my time on IowaCarry.Org to get Iowa shall issue but I found this board and it looked pretty neat.
I don't know if this person will still be around but I was looking thru the Firing Line archives and saw a post by danbrew. He posted "Keep in mind that some states that prohibit machine guns have no problems what so ever with short barrel rifles". I have a 1927A1 that I would like to put a 16 inch barrel on but Iowa doesn't permit sbr, full auto, etc. I was just wondering where danbrew got his info from. It would be great if it were true but each county sheriff has control over gun permits and if permitted, silencers, short barrels, etc. I'd sure like to know if short barrels were no big deal.
