Question. It still would not be a pistol. it has a barrel over 16 inches. Better check your laws. You can not legally turn a rifle into a handgun without a tax stamp.

doesn't sound quite right, but not sure. Also the Judge pistol is not a shotgun because it is rifled.

By law it is still a rifle.... not a handgun. therefore not legal

Ohio is a shotgun, pistol, and muzzle loader only state when it comes to deer hunting.

Your gun is not a shotgun. it is a rifle. I do not think it can be used legally in Ohio

Awful lot of gray area here. I would call and have the legality checked.
