I have been reading up on firearm law for a long time and have been a gunsmith for about a year and some change so i like to think i have a solid grasp on the laws. I was thinking recently about a way to build a "sawed off shotgun" (pistol grip, no stock) that would not need a tax stamp. i think i found a way, if i build myself a virgin receiver and make (or pay someone to make) a rifled barrel for it. it wouldn't fit the description of an SBS because it has no stock, and it wouldn't fit the description of an AOW because it has a rifled barrel. but it could still be classified as a DD. UNLESS i could get a sporting purpose exemption. since the intention of the gun would be to be used as last ditch for boar or large game hunting. (i conceived this idea after i got knocked on my *** by a wild hog. i shot it with a .44 but it still had enough in it to make it too me and knock me off my feet. i want something that will drop it immediately). so my question is does this seem like its worth it to bring to the ATF or is there something I'm missing that would make it a waste of time
