I just submitted a Form 1 for my 870 and plan on putting a 14" barrel on it. But then I got to thinking...
With it registered as a SBS, am I free to swap between a stock and a pistol-grip-only?
Seems like with a pistol grip, it would fall under the AOW definition:
With the stock, it would obviously be a SBS:
Just curious about my options once the stamp comes back. I doubt I'd use a pistol-grip-only setup with any regularity, but if I had the option, it might be fun for show and tell.

Seems like with a pistol grip, it would fall under the AOW definition:
Any weapon or device capable of being concealed on the person from which a shot can be discharged through the energy of an explosive;
A pistol or revolver having a barrel with a smooth bore designed or redesigned to fire a fixed shotgun shell;
With the stock, it would obviously be a SBS:
The term “firearm” means (1) a shotgun having a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length; (2) a weapon made from a shotgun if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length;
(d) Shotgun
The term “shotgun” means a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder...
