I wouldn't classify 34" barrel length as carbine measurement but I guess you do! What are yours....60"?? Even birds know not to land downwind!

My response was in 'jest' also! I know there are some out there with 36-38" but I figured I didn't want to have to use a set of wheels to tote the thing around! I believe 34" will suffice for what I want to use it for aka sitting at the bench in my back yard or in a deer blind in Kansas! I'm looking forward to it! No cases to clean, no cases to size or prime! I've been shooting Sharps now for going on 20 years and I'm feeling 'burnt out'....if you know what I mean!! Even birds know not to land downwind!
