Mossberg 500 Shockwave Questions on this video I stumbled across.
I've been looking at the shockwave Mossberg and this video popped up in youtube. I started watching it and feel like this guy is incorrect in it. He took a full length Pistol grip shotgun and shortened the barrel to SBS requirements. isn't the whole point of the Shockwave that it comes on a virgin receiver from the factory with is intended barrel length grip setup as a 'firearm' not a PG shotgun? You need to fill out the 4473 when you purchase it as a firearm if it was not purchased as that would it be illegal?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaB2RIhCv-4 I just want to know if I am mistaken in my understanding. I've read the attached link and still confused.

He says in the video that the gun was a pistol grip only gun. A PG shotgun (factory made) is not a shotgun-it's a "firearm."
What he did is perfectly legal. |

Ok. I am just making sure I understood it correctly. Thanks Bill. I wasn't sure if a pistol grip shotgun could be 'purchased' differently then just a firearm kinda like AR lowers. They can be both rifles or pistols depending how you do it.

When the 4473 is filled out, the dealer doesn't get to just decide what kind of firearm it is, he has to put on the 4473 what type of firearm it actually is at that time.
