	I might add that I believe for revolvers it's from the front of the cylinder.

ATF Standard Method to Measure Barrel Lengths This is ATF's standard method for measuring the length of gun barrels - it has been documented to be the case for shotguns and rifles. I haven't found anything stating that this is the standard method for handguns, but technically it should be fine. Procedure ... Run a dowel rod of approximately the bore diameter, down the barrel. When the rod is down as far as it will go, mark the spot where the barrel and any permanently mounted attachments end on the rod. Screwed-on attachments do not count. Measure the length of the rod between the mark you just made, and the end which you ran down the barrel. ... After cocking the action, what stops the rod from being pushed on past the larger diameter cylinder throats and on back to stop against the firing pin bushing? Don't see anything in the procedure that says to rotate a revolver's cylinder to a position that will stop the rod at the cylinder's front face.

You'd be surprised Goes on about trivial, insignificant BS all the time Lawyers, Lawmakers, Policy writers, Treaty negotiators, etc... their job descriptions require them to create trivial, insignificant BS all the time. And they suck up untrackable amounts of dollars doing so.
