Ok, this question is just theoretical and I feel that this would be the section to ask. I was wondering if say for instance someone who owned a Remington 870 or some other type of inexpensive pump gun bought a more expensive shotgun and then decided to use his old pump gun as an HD shotgun and then cut the barrel down to 18.5".
My question is that what if he accidently cut the barrel too short. What would happen then? Would he need to take the barrel to an ATF office to be disposed of? Would he get in trouble even if the barrel wasn't attatched to the receiver?
I know some might say that he could just pay the tax stamp and have it registered as an AOW, but what if he resides in Cali where all NFA firearms are illegal?
Like I said before this is just a theoretical question.
