If you're planning to use a pistol grip, I suggest a Remington 870 because the controls are easier to use. If you're planning to use a normal stock or a birds-head grip, both will work fine but I prefer the Mossberg 500/590 controls in that case.

I'm going to be using the hogue tamer grip. Heard great things about it and got it on sale. I bought it to fit the Mossberg/maverick so those are my options at this point. It will be probably be a maverick 88 based on cost.

Walmart sells the 88 for less than $200 everyday

Some may wish to read up on the ATF's treatment of Pistol Grip Only shotguns of greater than 26 inches in overall length as an AOW if there is evidence that the actual firearm was concealed on a person. See the ATF letter.

Sorry, Theohazard. I didn't even realize that was posted. I was trying to figure out how to post what was said so as to make it easier to understand things in context, and then I only saw what I had done when I realized I was editing what was accidentally posted. I probably shouldn't have posted given the kind of day it has been.
The point I was trying to make was that under the ATF's interpretation that a virgin PGO can be treated as an AOW even if it has an OAL of 26 inches plus. That said, are you so certain of your statement that you need not register under the NFA as long as your OAL is 26"? Last edited by dreaming; December 26, 2016 at 05:15 AM. |

But in and of itself, a PGO with a greater than 26" overall length is not an AOW.

Excellent news. Went to Dicks today and they have the maverick 88 going for $220. I asked the guy at the counter when he thought they may go on sale again and his short answer was he has no idea. I told him I would just take the hit and let's get some paperwork done.
Once we finished up we took me up to the register and leaned over to me and said "remember- you were out of town on black Friday" ...They rang me up for $178 and off I went. There are still some good people out there! |

Theohazard, Reading between the lines, I am thinking you know your stuff. Good job. As for over complicating things, I here you and the many variables that can get someone in trouble are ridiculous. Such as what if you never even mount a shoulder stock to your virgin pgo, but own one that will bolt right up. What if it is on another shotgun but both are disassembled at the same time for a deep cleaning? Does it sound like a TC case? I won't get into it and further confuse fold, but would be especiall leary if a dealer sold a pgo and sold a shoulder stock at the same time, although they were separate skews.
