This is a new design by the same factory that does the Vepr, but these are a sporter-styled gas-operated semi-auto that feeds from a detachable Savage/Mannlicher-type detachable three-round rotary magazine. They look like an interesting idea, and I hope someone is importing them.
Anyone bringing in the Molot Tucan?

Would be illegal for migratory birds

Under federal law the maximum total capacity allowed for hunting migratory birds is three -- two in the magazine and one in the chamber. One may plug a magazine to limit the number of rounds it holds, but the plug must be impossible to remove without dismantling the gun. From the description, I don't see how you'd make this shotgun legal.

Chances are a rotary magazine can be pinned/blocked so it will only take two shells.
What makes the gun interesting is the detachable magazine. Instead of a rotary type, maybe a double stack holding more than three.

The rotary magazine makes it illegal, you could theoretically have an infinitely loaded chamber, with multiple magazines.
It would be a stretch, but we are talking about our government.

By your reasoning, any shotgun with a "sidesaddle or speed loader" can not be used for migratory game bird hunting.
