I just acquired a nice Marlin 22 mag, with a heavy varmint barrel.
It is quite unbalanced, and noisy. Therefore thinking of a chop and suppress.
How short can I go without risking accuracy out to 100 mts?

Assuming your going to have a scope, short will likely increase accuracy.Quote:

Bloody hell! 12inches is, well, 12 inches.
Still legal I presume
It is, Annie make factory 14" ones and that little extra may cut es down so if doing it again I would consider that lengthQuote:

Give me a beer and 5 minutes with a hacksaw, I'll sort it for ya, 765mm total length :)
Cant guarantee a straight cut though
