Icopy and Justin,

Thanks for the favor of your replies. I appreciate the information.

Justin:
Yes, I will check with Beretta as to when the shotgun was made. The dealer represents it as "all factory", NIB. It does have the Pistol Grip and Extended Mag., and is not marked LEO--which should make it pre-ban. Once it shows up at my dealer, I will double check the Serial #. I did not think that there were aftermarket pistol grips or extended mags for the Beretta's, so it is likely the dealer is correct.

I am within the City limits, so you are correct about my inablilty to have anything other than a low-capacity, fixed mag rifle or shotgun. Most of my serious defensive stuff is stored outside the City limits--I would much prefer to have my H & K P7 PSP or one of my other handguns for self-defense, but as it is impossible to get a handgun registered in the city (or an AR would be nice also), I'm going to stick with the shotgun.

Thanks again for the reply.
