Here's the description as defined in Washington state code (currently)...
"Short-barreled rifle" means a rifle having one or more barrels less than sixteen inches in length and any weapon made from a rifle by any means of modification if such modified weapon has an overall length of less than twenty-six inches."
Now I am taking from this if your gun has a barrel less that 16" but the overall length of the gun is over 26" is not an SBR - but as defined by the ATF - just a firearm... (neither rifle nor pistol)
For if it said barrel shorter than 16" in length OR under 26" is considered an SBR...
So if I put a 14.5" barrel on a rifle and the overall length of the rifle is over 26" it is not an SBR. Right?
thoughts?
