I'm sorry is this a stupid question? I just don't want to do anything illegal because I plan on taking this gun out and about fairly often.
Wow thank you I had not even considered if there was a limit on over all lengthAs stated, cutting it to 18.5 inches is legal, but only if the final overall length is greater than 26 inches. Don't forget overall length when cutting the barrel.
You can increase stock length if needed by a permanently mounted recoil pad.
18 in barrel and 26 overall is the Federal Reg. Indiana cannot go shorter even with a stamp. However, I believe other states allow SBS, Short Barrel Shotguns.
Are you sure? I was at a gun show 1500, and was looking at a shorty
Shotgun it was told I just had to get the Indiana AOW stamp( any other weapon)
It was fair cheap the stamp but the wAit was long. I friend claims he had one, but I do t known for a fact. That's why I ask with question.
Can anyone clarify ???
Yes, you can modify it. Not a problem.
DO NOT GO UNDER 18" FROM THE CLOSED BREACH FACE.
..........With the asinine gun laws that are around you can never be too careful.
