why bother cutting it. i like the barrel longer. i went to buy one and was told they are illegal in new york state because it is considered an assault weapon. bites to live here for that reason.

its the mag outside the pistol grip, and also i think its over the limit as far as weight goes

Considering that the optimum barrell length for the .22lr is about 16"; I say leave it alone...you'll get better performance.
