Sniffle Kchunt,
It just so happens,that I'm not the gent that bought the Company. Now even you know. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!
There's a constant in The Industry to shoe horn receivers and that will only come as a SURPRISE! to you. Teeker 7mm Rem Mag receivers are the same length as their 223 receivers,if only to try and slap your drooling crossed-eyes straight. Hint.
Question was/is,are the 20 Shorts a DEDICATED receiver shortened length,or a shoe horn,under the pending Establishment. Hint.
Fhuqking LAUGHING,at your "knowledge" and KEEN "understanding"! Hint................
This is still not true. Your question was not whether the Model 20 Short was a dedicated shorter length receiver than the Model 20, it was whether the internal length of the magazine of the Model 20 Short will fit a 2.600" COAL. (obviously it won't!!!) FYI, it is a shorter length action.
