Two thoughts. 8 inches seems kinda short. Mine's eleven. Eight would be shorter than the forearm.


Notice mine has hammers. Hammerless guns depend on the opening of the barrels to cock the strikers. Longer barrel equals more leverage equals easier cocking. Shorter barrel equals harder to cock. Hammered guns, on the other hand, just open. No fuss. That's why I picked a hammered one to cut.
THAT IS AWESOME....
