I thought the IMI SA mini uzi barrel was 19”. A mini with a 16 incher would make it still too short to have a stock on it. A 16” barrel would be for a SA full size uzi. This is a pretty important detail if you’re gonna sell one.
ETA: I notice you closed your WTS ad. Helpful hint: a pic of the barrel with a tape measure alongside might get it sold. Otherwise you want someone to send you $800 for a sight unseen gun part.

Didn’t Vector used to sell a 16” mini barrel? I remember seeing it and realizing that some places measure OAL with stocks extended.

Federal and most states measure with stock extended. IIRC only Michigan and California measure folded.

Vector did sell some minis with 16" barrels, but as I recall, those had specially designed fixed wood stocks that brought the rifle to within the right length. They looked a heck of a lot better than with that 18" barrel, or as their website said, "180 inch barrel" (I don't know if they ever corrected that before the website shut down, but it always made me chuckle). So yes, there's a way to put a 16" barrel on a mini without going the SBR route so these barrels exist.

You are right, almost 20" on the barrel, maybe I will relist the stuff.

I went on the old Wayback machine to see Vector Arms' website back in 2005, and yes, the barrels were 19" not 18" (though it did have that mistake that I misquoted where they added a zero at the end). This pic also shows the 16" barreled versions with the custom made polymer stock. It's kind of depressing to see the prices now.

Vector sold mini uzi carbines with the 16" barrel and folding stock. I bought two direct from Vector and they never asked what barrel length I wanted.

Maybe that was toward the end when they were starting to slip up a little? Or maybe they saw what state you're in and figured it was OK (assuming you're in a state that would allow it).
