The barrel would need a hinge somewhere around knee length to work with my IWB carry holster.

It has a 20lb spring for a 5" Govt. The recoil plug is solid for 2" then skirted like normal for another inch.

That makes a lot of sense, but I'm not sure that I would have ever thought of that solution on my own.

I look forward to your range report!
