Another big issue is that ANY firearm with a bore of greater than 0.50" is a destructive device unless the Attorney General finds that such a firearm has a suitable sporting purpose.
If shotguns meeting the above configuration can't be imported because they are not suitable for sporting purposes, it is a very short leap to applying the same rationale to domestic shotguns - and the Attorney General already has this authority under the 1968 GCA - he doesn't need to ask Congress for permission to do this.
