Dont forget the Bandsaw, grinder and glue

Is this a reference to the length of pull? What height of person does this become an issue? 5ft 9” or shorter?

Id say shorter than 6ft 2. With thick clothes, even taller.
Lop is an inch longer than most bolt rifles

Are European shooters taller?

No clue, but I have started well over 100 people shooting in the SE US and know a 14.5 inch lop is too long for 90% of rifle shooters.

Why Long LOP on Euro Rifles?

Why do rifles made in Europe, especially Germany, tend to have longer lengths of pull than US made rifles? Are Germans on average just taller with longer arms?
