      They were both originally 18” in NFA. The gov surplussed the M1 Carbine before word got out it was 1/4” short. Congress amended the act in 1968 to correct that error. I think an earlier similar snafu allowed 16” small bore rifles but I couldn’t quickly find a source.

    Funny thing about the 17.5". I have a friend that bought a transferrable 14", and then hacked down an 18" barrel to 16" and threw it on there. He intentionally left the cut rough. You should see the troling he does to the fudds at the range. They notice it looks short and ask him about it. He plays dumb and says "yea i cut it down to 16, because that s what the law said was the limit when I looked it up". They start shaking their heads at him saying its illegal and thats for rifles not shotguns. The shit is hilarious.

    Good morning from south central BC, thanks for the video. As mentioned already, although our handgun rules are draconian at best, we see a lot of short shotguns carried for dealing with recalcitrant bruins - of which there is no shortage btw. After lifetime of packing 18½" barreled pump guns, about 5 years back my "meat packing/mushroom picking" shotgun is now a 14". It's much much handier to carry - yes again a handgun would be 100 times better - but it certainly has more muzzle blast than the slightly longer barrels. Usually I train with the longer barreled ones because of that and just shoot the shorty enough to maintain familiarity with it. Stay well.
