I assume you mean because of the barrel length?

I understood that an integral (non-removeable) moderator became part of the barrel - that's why no extra slot is required for a moderator that's part of the barrel.

So an original De Lisle should be S1, if your reasoning is based on barrel length.

Ah, didn't realise that was the case! Still doubt I'll find an original though!
