So, an important question is if Arizona law would consider such a firearm to be a shotgun even if the BATFE doesn't.
If it wasn't sold as a "shotgun", I don't think I would have a problem trying to protest that in court. I am, as the Shockwave site suggested, emailing the ATF to get a return letter, specific to my serial number, indicating that it would be considered legal.

AZ is quite friendly with the gun laws. I'm pretty sure it would be okay - but I will likely try to get confirmation from local PD as well. Obviosuly, I'm not trying to do anything illegal here, so hopefully this thread is all within the rules. I believe it is.

Uncle, I wanted to do that but I cannot "prove" my P/G Defender I bought in 1985 was purchased as pistol grip only...
From my understanding, you should be able to send a letter to the ATF with the description, make, model, serial number... and what you want to do to it. They will send a letter back with confirmation on how the gun was originally manufactured and whether you would be authorized to make such modifications.

Thanks for the input, guys!
