AOW 12gauge

[David Hineline]

I would charge $100 to register a gun and transfer for someone more to actually cut the barrel, so the $195 savings over doing it all yourself gets eaten up quickly.

The biggest advantage of the AOW unit is not the tax savings it is that some states do not allow Sawed off Shotguns and no federal paperwork is needed to transport an AOW across state lines, where as the short shotgun must have previous ATF approval to cross state lines.

That too. You can only have C&R SBS in Minnesota whereas AOWs are unrestricted. That was one reason for going the AOW route for me because I wanted to be able to take it into MN. (That and the price was right.)
