Q:

Do the NEW Mutant Shortys have a longer barrel?

:hoot:

I’ve read that the Shorty Mutants are now being made with a 13.5″ barrel. Does anyone know if that is true? Have they been shipped yet?

I feel the Shorty needs a couple more inches of barrel to max out it’s potential performance.

oops, seems i hijacked the thread.

will the longer barrel and a picatinny rail make a mutant look like an automatic weapon? 🙂

Now I need to get a tape measure out and see if I got the longer barrel, or the shorter one.

I apologize Uncle :hoot: ,

you’re perfectly right!

:hoot:

Unless the EU plans to ban long barrels on the new Mutant Shortys…perhaps this topic belongs in it’s own thread.

Hoot:

“The Commission proposal suggested substantial changes to the list of category A firearms that are prohibited for the general public, including a ban on any firearm which “resembles” an automatic firearm.”

This proposal could allow any left wing governement to ban almost any firearm….

Which modern pistol doesn’t “resemble” to a Glock 18?

“The Commission proposals, a revision of the EU firearms directive, are partly designed to stem the flow of illegal weapons to terrorist groups like I.S. as well as dangerous criminals.” and this is good…

“However, several committee members criticised the draft as “unworkable”, partly because they said it might also unfairly impact on people who own firearms legally, such as sportsmen and those in the hunting community.” and this is bad…

How is it possible to propose the revision of the firearms directive and putting in the same sentence “illegal weapons” and “sportsmen”?

As usually I think they will mix up everything and then “goodbye”. :angrymob:

I don’t have a direct link but just google European Parliament Firearms proposals and you will find a lot of interesting reading.

Don’t know if you have seen the new proposals concerning firearms in the EU, if they make it to legislation then we are simply fuc*ed.

I have not seen these proposals, where are they published for review?

Seriously, has anyone had luck getting moderators shipped in from OCONUS sources?

Where are you from and what are you looking for exactly? Donny is a good source for LDC’s

They do have a lot of stuff Hoot: Takes a while to go through it all

A Møøse once bit my sister… No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge – her brother-in-law – an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: ‘The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist’, ‘Fillings of Passion’, ‘The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink’…

Seriously, has anyone had luck getting moderators shipped in from OCONUS sources? Seems like Customs would have a fit if the item was properly listed on the declaration form.

Did anyone notice their Maccari Pipvikt/Vapen Tillbehör is only 450 Schniegleforks!!! That’s a good price, but it says it fits 14mm barrels but it can be shimmed with electrical tape for barrels of other sizes…I’m puzzled as to how that works for a 15mm barrel???

Otherwise, an interesting site…they seem to have everything!

Actually interesting shop, they have competitive prices and deserve better advertising.

I read also about a gun shipped by Balistas and being seized. Absolutely nothing wrong, it turned to a happy ending but took quite some time to get sorted but it confirms what I was saying, importing starts to become a risky process.

Oh yeah, balistas, but they don’t have the shorty. I Wonder if they will get the .25 version, and how helpful they are in exporting it with a different power setting. In Sweden we have a 7,4 FPE limit without FAC. If it is any higher and customs opens that package…

Edit, the standard version is available in Sweden too, but not the shorty.
