First off, welcome to Bayoushooter.

Second, it is not highly illegal, it is highly regulated.

Any barrel shorter than 18" would be considered a SBS (Short Barreled Shotgun) and would require a $200 Tax Stamp and registration with the ATF.

The $200 tax stamp is a one time fee that you pay, you must fill out the required paperwork, you will have a background check performed, and you will either need to set up a Trust or have your Chief Law Enforcement Officer sign off on the paperwork.

Contact JCcypress. I've provided you the link to his profile, where you can send him a Private Message.

Applying for NFA/Class III firearms is not difficult, but it's not as easy as buying a Polar Pop from Circle K either.

 

[zombiejesus12394]

whats that suppose to mean

 

[Spleen]

Shotguns require an 18 1/2" barrel, not 18". Anything barrel shorter than 18 1/2" would be considered a SBS (Short Barreled Shotgun) and would require a $200 Tax Stamp and registration with the ATF.

This is incorrect.
If that were true then just about all retailers are selling SBSs illegally.
The minimum legal length is 18".

Some folks keep the length a bit longer just to be on the safe side, but 18" is the minimum legal length without NFA paperwork.

Spleen is correct. 18" is the requirement.

Spleen is correct. 18" is the requirement.

Revised my earlier post

BTW, I don't mess with Shotguns

It's going to be alright man. Just slow down. I admire you for taking care of your family. Start reading newspapers every day. Their grammar is suspect but that level of reading will get you close to where you need to be to get your GED.

That great if you want to buy, but to cut down the double barrel you have you will have to go the NFA route and spend $200.

They sell a non NFA, pump action, magazine fed "shotguns" with barrels less than 18" They are nice, but pricey.
