But it was quite impressive to see how they turned it into an SBR by just carrying it to the shop... Is it just my old eyes, or did they really work on the same gun that the sheriff turned in? Looked like a 16" when he put it on the counter, but looked way shorter in the next scene, before they even started working on it...

I noticed that also, definitely two different tommys.

Might they have just shortened the original bbl to make it more CQB friendly?? I did not pick up on the change in bbl length until they were demonstrating the weapon to the sheriff.
