Rossi has the new wizard switch barrel system out, but no pistol frames.

Is there any way to legally change a rifle to a pistol? Cutting the stock to a pistol grip is easy enough, but what hoops would have to be jumped through from the legal end?

It seems at the worst I could file the papers to "build" a handgun and then re-serial the item or something.
