I thought short barreled rifles/shotguns were also covered under the NFA of 1934. I thought a sawed off shotgun was the subject of that one lawsuit (Miller?).anygunanywhere wrote:As long as they meet the overall and barrel length requirements they are legal.saltydog452 wrote:OK, my bad. I don't know the difference with GCA 68, or the NFA of '34. I understand that the length issue was in the GCA '68.
The firearms are a Remington 870 and a Winchester lever action.
Short-barreled rifles (SBRs)—this category includes any firearm with a buttstock and either a rifled barrel under 16" long or an overall length under 26". The overall length is measured with any folding or collapsing stocks in the extended position. The category also includes firearms which came from the factory with a buttstock that was later removed by a third party.
Short barreled shotguns (SBSs)—this category is defined similarly to SBRs, but the barrel must be under 18" or a minimum overall length under 26". and the barrel must be a smoothbore.
Do with them what you want.
