    762mm minimum length is the key point.as long as it cannot be fired in whatever contortion it has AND be less than 762 you are ok. That's my understanding of rules and I can tell you that is plurry short indeed. A 12ga is extremely noisy at minimum length,actually so is wee .410 .
    75/15/10 black powder matters

    Looking at the page, there is nothing to say that it folds, but if it does fold, it does not appear to obstruct the trigger so unless I am lissing something, it looks like it would fire in its shortened / folded format.

    Inerstingly..762mm may seem a random arbitary length, but it works out a 30 inches for those of us also fluent in old speak.....
