Never forget that a jury found Weaver not guilty of sawing off the barrel too short.

They convicted him of a very minor charge, something like failure to appear.

Actually, he was accused of shortening a stock too much. Any gun guy knows the minimum length for the barrel, bet he was unaware (as many) that there is an overall length minimum, and if you shorten a stock to fit a small shooter, you may be committing a crime.
