AOW Shotgun

So with the open letter from ATF today I'm thinking I don't need to wait for my form 1. I would like my tax stamp, and will wait longer. Filed 6 weeks ago, I'm hoping soon.

As referenced by Reno May in the video in post #58, your thinking would seem to be correct though I might ask a CA attorney before I assembled an AOW if it were me.

The relevant PC, 17710, in conjunction with the guidance ATF released today, would seem to allow it (highlighting mine):

Sooo if we currently own an AOW , were ok to still own it? And we can just build one willy nilly now?

If you have your tax stamps, yes, your AOW is still registered and still an NFA device. As far as if this ruling affects Commifornia, I would wait to hear from someone who REALLY knows what they are talking about on this.
AOWs are mentioned in several California PCs but creating one really isn't. If something is not mentioned in PC, it is generally legal but then again, Commifornia illegally arrests and seizes legal weapons and destroys them almost daily so
I would wait for guidance from CRPA or someone like that before building or creating anything.

In CA, I picked up a Mossberg semiauto 990 Aftershock on sale, and must day, that's short a'plenty.

With that in tow, I don't really see a need to go any shorter just to push CA limits, nor do I really think I would want a semiauto shotgun any shorter.

I had a chance to get a Serbu Super Shorty AOW at one point, but passed on it - honestly, it was so short, it didn't make any sense - nor worth any special hassle.

I'm not against the AOW Shotgun by any means, the dea of any short shotgun is appealing. I just think my 40 year old Mossberg pistol-gripped 500 18" Cruiser, and this new Aftershock semiauto are the perfect length for what I want out of them.
