Sawed off over and under

[eatredmeat157]

Ok but we must maintain 18", which ruins the whole point of the project. Unless we could have one manufactured. Big bucks

Is there a reason you dont see short over and unders?

The problem with o/u shotguns compared to s/s shotguns is the o/u requires breaking it far more open to access the lower barrel... and in general o/u's are more expensive and people are more reluctant to make them into a piece of useless junk just for the looks of it...

if this was done at home with a the right tools from a 20+ inch original barrel and still over 27 OAL ,, it would be prohib right?

If your barrel is greater than 18.5"/470mm and the overall length is greater than 26"/660mm, the firearm remains non-restricted. If the barrel length is reduced to 18"/457mm, the firearm becomes Restricted. If either length is reduced beneath those minimums by sawing, cutting, folding or any other modification, the firearm becomes Prohibited. Manual-action firearms manufactured shorter than the legal minimums are sometimes exempt and remain non-restricted.

18 inches is perfectly legal for a over under, sxs, pump or other manually operated shotgun. And it stays non restricted.

You are quoting for semi auto's.

18 inches and overall of 26 inches is legal and not restricted for manual actions.

Correct, but the OAL of 26 still remains in effect for manual actions... Hence the 8.5 inch Grizzly pump action needing a fixed stock... To meet the 26" OAL requirement.

Sawed offs are great fun, love both mine. I would saw off that o/u in a minute Only thing cooler would be to have it hanging in the rear window gun rack in my new Ferrari with a 18" lift kit and 4WD under it.
