Last night, as I lay awake, staring into th abyss, I started thinking that the only difference between an AOW and a pistol is the smooth bore. If you were to put a straight-rifled barrel on something like the Serbu super shorty, wouldn't it just be another handgun, as far as the law is concerned? Or would it now be a DD, because of the >1/2" bore diameter? Or would it be exempt from DD status, on account of it being able to fire shotgun shells?
Assuming the pistol classification would be correct, would you have to build it up from a virgin receiver for it to be legal? Or could you just swap out the parts on your existing shotgun? (kind of like those carbine kits that turn a 1911 into a rifle.)
Ugh. . . Gun laws make my head hurt.
