Never had a problem with the 44" barrel on my rifle. I drive a Toyota Camry. I just fold the back seat down, and slide the rifle into the trunk.

The shortest flint barrel I own is a 36" .45 and a great rifle in the deer woods. The rest are 38" including the smoothbore. The longest I had was a 42" .50 EVa rifle. Difficult to get it into a car or my truck; otherwise I did like it a lot.
That is one thing that I notice is that anything longer than the 36" barrel of my trade gun will have a hard time fitting into my truck cab or my jeep Wrangler.


Yep, had the same problem with to long of a barrel, strapped on the back a longer barrel and I became a hazard on the road.

I am still a hazard nevertheless.

With a shorter bbl. there would be less to clean if that was a problem for anyone. I like the looks of a longer one myself. Dan.
