So I understand it would be an NFA item classified as an SBS. I've never gone through the process of trying to get a class III firearm, and I may not even commit to it, but I would really like to have one of these things. I mean, the aesthetics:

idc if it's totally impractical, it's just cool. Like a desert eagle.

To me, this is different than your standard SBS, as they were lovingly crafted to be a small, pistol gripped package made of wood and steel.

Are these legal in MD with an NFA license/stamp/whatever?

I fully agree they are AWESOME!!!!! I hope someone comes along and properly answers your question. I know a SBR has to be 29' but I don't know about the SBS but I would assume thats your main hurdle.

If all else fails get yourself the Ron Swanson Desk Jocky

Would be fun with mini buckshot.

Depending upon the details of the timeline ( worthy of seperate thread ) , the pictured item could be either an AOW or a SBS.

No 29in issues, it is not semiautomatic, nor is it a centerfire Rifle .

Not sure of the camera angle, or the picture cropping , but presuming the bbls are less than 16 inches , the same transport restrictions in Md under 4-203 as for sterotypical handguns . Interstate transport is regulated by NFA , and the details differ depending upon status aa either SBS or AOW.

TL/DR - Yes , you can own one in Maryland .

I'd be seriously interested if it was an AOW.

It is an AOW, Since there is no stock on it.

$5 tax stamp

$5 tax stamp

And it didn’t leave the factory with a stock.

Biggfoot44 · May 31, 2018

Oversimplified -

If it was origonally mfg as an AOW , it is AOW with $5 tax stamp .

If it were made from a pre-existing shotgun , it is an SBS, with $200 tax stamp.

If AOW , it has to remain in AOW form.

If papered as SBS , it can temporarily move back and forth between stock and PGO .

If you could get a new bare receiver (not yet a pistol/rifle/shotgun) and you add (even minimally)rifled barrels, you would construct a pistol no? Same as 45LC revolvers that fire .410 shells?

Biggfoot44 · May 31, 2018

Not really , unless you actually meant .45/ .410 .

Rifled firearms over .50cal are considered Destructive Devices , unless a Sporting Purposes Exemption issued from ATF . Rifled shotguns as we know they have a catagorical Exemption . Certain Elephant gun type cals such as .600 and .700 Nitro Express have Exemptions . You can submit your prooposed big bore rifled short ( thing that goes BANG ) , but I wouldn't think determination to be Title 1 is likely.

Meanwhile, no restrictions upon such things as Muzzleloaders , rifled, smoothbore, or combination .
