What is minimum OAL on a rifle?

[Correia]

I know that minimum barrel is 16". What is the total minimum length for items like bullpups? Thanks.

In Utah, where you live, I am not aware of any restrictions...

In CA, the current AW law states OAL of 30"

Enjoy!

If it's under 26", it is an NFA weapon, I think.

Andrew is correct. Any long gun under 26" overall is classed as an NFA item.

Thanks guys. California law sucks.

IIRC the minimum bbl length to not be an SBR is 16", as you said, but the minimum OAL is 30".

If you look at a preban AR15 with a 16" bbl and a collapsable stock then when it is collapsed it is just over 30"

My Bushmaster Bullpup is just over 30".


I believe the 26" length is for shotguns.


Makes a lot of sense, don't it?
