Fellas,

I've bought an alloy silencer for a 2260 and having removed the foresight to fit it, I find that the rifle is too long to fit my gun bag.

Can I remove a few inches off the barrel end? I've read somewhere that if you want to shorten a barrel it's best done by chopping off at the breech end? Is this correct? How much length can I remove and will it affect the rifles performance?

Thanks, Beardy Rich.
