I have been looking into starter sized firearms for my son to learn on, lately and have been asking alot of questions about 20ga shotguns.
I also saw the chipmunk rifle and noticed it had a 16" bbl and a 30" OAL.
Now, I know that a shotgun minimum bbl length is 18.5" - I would cut down to 20" just to be safe.
But (and here's the question):
is there a minimum overall length for a shotgun? (in Maryland, if that applies)
Or can I shave the stack to pistol grip if I want? I don't want, BTW. just want a shorter little-boy sized one.
But i dont want to break ANY firearms laws, local or federal.
thanks,
Carl
