Shortened Barrel
Greatly improves handling at the cost of range and stability.
Overview
Shortened Barrel is a Basic-rarity Barrel perk from Season 20. It greatly improves handling at the cost of range and stability, so the weapon readies and swings faster but reaches less far and aims less steadily.
Numbers
Handling increases by +20. Range decreases by -5 and stability decreases by -5.
Availability
Conditional Finality is the only weapon with this roll, so it is uncommon.
Compared with other handling perks
Short-Action Stock gives +15 handling with no range or stability penalty, so it is the cleaner way to get handling if your weapon has a stock slot to spare.
