There are two answers to that term. CARBINE is the general term for a short rifle. However, there is a LEGAL term in the US- Short Barreled Rifle. This refers to a rifle whose barrel is less than 16 inches long, and/or overall length less than 26 inches. Under the US National firearms Act, such rifles are legal only if registered with the BATFE, and a tax paid on their transfer. They are in a similar legal class with sawed off shotguns and machineguns.

The 241 is a "Takedown" Rifle, so you have about 3/4 of an inch beyond where the barrel meets the receiver that is threaded so you can assemble and disassemble the rifle.
In Ohio, the legal minimum barrel length for a rifle is 16 inches. Any rifle with a barrel length shorter than that would be considered a short-barreled rifle, which is regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA).
Without requiring a permit for a short-barreled rifle (SBR), 16 inches. That's federal law.
