I don't think the capacity has much to do with it. Italian 1873 Winchester clones with 24"+ barrels, that hold 11 - 17 rounds in the tube get imported all the time. I think the capacity ban only means for detachable box mags.
I think the ATF just doesn't want to import it because it's "non-sporting". Congress, in all of their wisdom, gave them jurisdiction and discretion in these affairs, after all.
