Summary of the two letters: a pistol-grip shotgun that never had a shoulder stock is regulated simply as a firearm, not as a shotgun. FFL's may not transfer them to buyers who are 18-20 year olds.
So, what if one were to take a pistol grip shotgun that never had a shoulder stock installed, and chop the barrel down to 17 inches, but maintain an overall length greater than 26 inches (not easily concealable)? Is it a DD, and AOW, an SBS, or a Title I firearm?
ATF answer: Title I firearm
