I have a question...adding a pistol grip to the Shockwave magically turns it from a firearm to an AOW. Could that be legally be done by “transferring” it to myself and paying the five bucks (along with the transfer fee)?

I wouldn't buy one with someone else's money.

I think the fact that it's a Mossberg would make me assume it's a piece shit already. This thing is a gimmick.

Should of been transferred as a firearm.

No. The Shockwave is not a Title II firearm. It is still a Title I. You would be manufacturing a Title II firearm which is $200.

Not sure Knight,

the compact cruiser is an AOW.

Not really magical. It drops the length under minimum. The "birds head" grip is sort of long.

The moment you make Title I into a Title II is a manufacture of a NFA device. Someone somewhere has to pay the $200.

I apologize for possibly causing a derailment in your thread. I am responsible for thread #16. I guess I got a discussion going on about AOW and NFA and that was not my intention. I only mention AOW to describe a shotgun I once owned that was similar to the shockwave. My intention on posting #16 was to tell you my experience in owning a similar shotgun and its limited use. I was trying to prevent you from experiencing the same thing that I did after I bought mine; that is, buyer's regret. Just trying to help.
