Was not sure what thread to put this in because it is a two part question .
Have a guy at work that wants to give me a shot gun he has , but I am not sure if it it legal . It is a 16 ga bolt action , don't know the make , with a pistol grip and he saids it has at least a 18" barrel , I haven't seen it yet . Is there a over-all length they have to be . I was just thinking I would take it and see if I could find a stock for it .
Second question is , how do I know it is not stolen . I trust this guy 100% , but I started to think about if I bought a used gun from a show or somewhere . Is there a web site or a place to call to see if it has been stolen .
I am in Rochester New York , if it matters . Thanks .
