Mossy Shockwave

Okay, I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how this 590 Shockwave is a non-NFA piece.

IIRC, any shotgun with an overall length of less than 26" OR a barrel of less than 18" in length, as measured from the breech, falls under NFA. SBS = $200 tax stamp and Form 4.

The mag capacity is too large for it to qualify as an AOW. $5 stamp and Form 4.

I trust that Mossberg has done their homework, but the lawyer in me wants to know how this works.

EDIT: The only way I can see (without looking up the NFA right now) is this: Since it leaves the manufacturer with a pistol grip, rather than a shoulder stock, and the capacity is large enough to be a 'firearm,' rather than an AOW, maybe it's one of those "loopholes" the blue-staters are always whining about.

I know it, and it's damn sexy, too.  I bought mine in the MarineCoat flavor, but that's just the receiver. I'm thinking mine might be getting stripped down and Cerakoted...   :laffs:

They did it right.

You know...   I'm already painting on Saturday...  and I got more Cerakote in...  I might give this thing the business...
