Re: Barrel length
Assuming you mean a true rifle and not an AR pistol, AOW, or other firearm that may fall into a different classification the minimum length for a rifle barrel is 16 inches.
This is federal law, it is not a PA law.
Is there a specific rifle in mind that brought this question up?

Re: Barrel length
Federal law says 16". PA doesn't recognize sbr's as a hunting rifle. I hope this answer the question.

Re: Barrel length
MT1,
I've tried to reply 3 times but none seem to have taken.
I'll try again.

Re: Barrel length
Yes, MT1, there is.
I have a High-Point 4595TS (.45 cal. Carbine) that I'll be converting to a Bullpup in the future.
The 4595 has a barrel length of 16-1/2" but it now seems foolish to cut the barrel to remove only 1/2".
Do you have any idea what the minimum barrel length of an SBR is ??
Thanks for the response(s) all.Last edited by rmmpe; September 1st, 2017 at 09:18 PM.
