will the short cylinder from the model 2 work on the c-10 and are they available somewhere in usa? I would like to put a short cylinder on my c-10 to reduce the forward weight. Thanks-

Yes they do, the cylinder thread is the same in the C2, C10 and C20.
I did the same once (using the short cylinder) although for me it was a step backwards.
As to where to get it, let's some shooter from the USA answer that one.

I've tried a C5 cylinder on a model 2 and it works.
The C5 (5 shot) is shorter than the others and has a short cylinder.
The model 2 uses the cylinder valve as a firing valve, so it has no pressurized chamber. This means the cylinder valve stays closed until you fire a shot.
