WRONG

Its your gun on your ticket

e.g. if it had a 32in barrel, you can cut it to 24in. STILL LEGAL

but you can't sell it without reproofing it

S1 shotgun, 24in barrel, overall 40in minimum

As I understand it, standard version (non UK) has 19.7 inch barrel (500mm). This gives an oal of 1000mm

To make it UK legal, barrel is 24 inches. Therefore oal for UK is 4.3 inches plus 1000mm. So about 1100mm.
