Stupid question time.
I saw some pictures that people have taken 12ga shotguns and mounting them under their AR15. Now, it looks rather unwieldy with a 18inch barrel, so it would work better with something like a Serbu Super Shorty AOW. If you where to take a virgin shotgun reciever and never put any form of buttstock or a vertical foregrip, and keep the barrel at >18 inches, what does it have to be registered as? an SBS, AOW, or DD if at all? And one was to add rifling to the mix?
I poured over the ATF regs and couldn't come up with a conclusive answer. In the end I suspect it would just be easlier to buy a Serbu, pay the $5 transfer, and mount from there.
