I know they've been okayed by our fine friends at ATF but I wonder why? A shotgun is defined as a smoothbore designed to be fired from the shoulder, so that takes the shockwave out of that category. A 14"bbl is less than the legal length of either a shotgun or a rifle. I know they've been put into another class called firearm but I haven't found a definition on ATF websites that covers it, yet. The oal is 27" so it meets that requirement.
Im thinking that at some point ATF will go after purchasers like the did with forced reset triggers, solvent traps, etc. when they change the rules. What do you all think?
I don't really want one, but I think often about "hidden in plain sight". Imagine a fiberglass trophy fish hanging on the wall with something like that inside, preferably with clearance for the trigger so the first round could be fired from inside the trophy. Of course, that would put it into the same category as a wallet holster capable of being fired in the holster.
