Ahh, makes more sense. We got a few pre-ban 551 LB's from before 1989 and then a batch of SB's that were sold to LE only until JDI started importing some as pistols. I've got one of the former LE guns w/ a permanent barrel extension on it to make it US-legal.

The pre-89 551s had 16” oal barrels. The 551 LB with its 17.8” oal barrel that has the grenade launching boss (hump) was not imported pre-89. The majority of these were imported by CCF in Richmond, VA as brand new kits along with their receivers which were imported when atf was still allowing receivers of non-sporting firearms for “repair/replacement “ purposes. All were -1 (1:10 twist barrel). There were probably a handful imported a complete rifles for LE/Gov. One of our FFL/SOT members I believe has one; I will let him chime in if he wants.

I thought you must be in Europe. My 551 LB (thanks to JoshNC). Started as a LE weapon, then swapped the barrel and added the Green furniture.
