I have heard that folding stock rifles are measured with stocks extended for the 26" minimum overall length rule. Otherwise, M1 Carbines with folders would fall under the NFA as short rifles. However, I can't find this exception anywhere on the ATF website, or in the NFA regulations listed there.
Can anyone tell me if this is true, and if so, a reference to the regulation?
This is a hot topic on AK sites, concerning folders after the AWB sunsets, but I have not seen a definitive answer. Some 16" barrelled AK folders would be about 25" in length with the stock retracted.
