    Making a C&R shotgun into an AOW?

    Ok, I have a Western Field shotgun, which is just a store brand version of a Stevens 520. It is a C&R. What are the rules on turing it into an AOW short barreled shotgun with a pistol grip? Is it legal here? And do I have to keep the pistol grip on it, or is there some way to make a legal C&R short barreled shotgun?

      No, you can't make an AOW out of an existing shoulder-fired shotgun. A shotgun, once shortened, becomes an SBS, not an AOW.

      Read the link in my sig for more info.

      Do you want an AOW or C&R SBS/SBR in CA?

      No posts of mine are to be construed as legal advice, which can only be given by a lawyer.

          Doh. Would I be able to turn it into a SBS with a trust?
