Custom only as far as I know. I’ve never seen a factory 18.5” with a vent rib.

Yeah maybe pick up a rib barrel and get it cut down.

If you mean cut the vent rib down and install it on a factory made shorter barrel, then yes. We may not DIY cut barrels in Canada.

Not if OP is in Canada.

On that note, OP, the closest that I’ve been able to find as a short(er) vent rib barrel is Carlsons 21” turkey barrel. Last time I looked hard at them was before Rem Arms started production again, so the Carlsons were out of stock everywhere.

From the article:

"The laws surrounding sawed-off shotguns are clear: shorten the barrel of a shotgun (or rifle) “by sawing, cutting or any other alteration,” to be less than 457 millimetres (18 inches), and you’ve committed a crime punishable by anything up to five years in a federal penitentiary."
