Recomendations for 12 ga

[js_silveradoss]

I am wanting at getting a 12 ga with a less than 18 in barrel. Not sure what is out their and wondering on some sugestions.

What are you looking to do with it?

The 870 is a very popular choice and a personal fav of mine!

Not gonna happen. Indiana specifically prohibits Short Barreled Shotguns. Your ONLY option for a "shorty" shotgun is an AOW shotgun (these CAN NOT have a buttstock). These must also be registered with BATFE and you must pay the transfer tax...

18" barrels are legal though right?

 

[VUPDblue]

yep. 18" is the minimum.

 

[czar996]

Thanks, that is what I thought!

Although I'd like to encourage you to take the time to write your state gov't and tell them to stop treating you like a criminal...

That Serbu Super Shorty 870 is what about $700? Tax stamp for an AOW is $5?

Indiana code need to be rewritten to allow legally manufactured SBS's and continue to ban federal banned sawed off shotguns.

so I can get a serbu for $705 and probably $20-25 for shipping? is there any other fees that need to be taken care of?

Nope. Cost of base gun, tax, shipping. That's it. Good luck finding one, though. I've had one ordered since Feb...

Acme Sports in Seymour had one in stock last time I was there. It was the Mossberg and not the Remington, if that matters to you.

ahh I knew there had to be a catch...I guess availability is that catch. well now that I know what kind of cost is involved Ill try to get ahold of one. was thinkin about an AR but Im a shotgun lover so the serbu is rite up my alley!

dont forget that even if you cut the barrel down to the legal min of 18 inches the OVERALL length of the gun has to meet or exeed 26 inches.
