Alright /k/ yesterday 2 of my friends bought some old af bolt action shotguns for ~$100 a piece. I have the absolute madman idea of finding one myself for around that much and doing some stupid shit to it. First order of business is to hack it down to 18 inches. Also may put some kind of cheap red dot on there and maybe niggerrig some kind of folding stock on it. If it has a mag I might try and extend it and if it has a tube we'll see.
Is this a retarded idea? I'm usually against modifying guns like this but in this case it's a shitty bubba shotgun. If you think I should do it do you have any suggestions?

How is the barrel mounted to the receiver? I would strongly suggest cutting it on a lathe and doing so just a little bit longer than the legal minimum just in case the BATFE's measuring implement isn't quite accurate, if you know what I mean. That or register it as an SBS and cut it down to 13 inches for shiggles.

Like I said I don't have it yet so the model may vary but from disassembly of 2 different models that my friends bought yesterday it doesn't seem like you can remove the barrel from the receiver. Hell these things are made cheap af one of the models you couldn't even remove the bolt.

I had one, sold it. It only had one lug on it's bolt and I didn't trust it. I'm not sure if it was meant to be just bird shot or something, but it was a Sears catalog gun, so info was thin.
I thought about sbr-ing it or something, it could cut down way farther than a pump, but its it's action was just too shitty for the effort.
If you find a good one, I think it might be cool. They are pretty cheap.

Cut down, replace bead on sight, and buy some of those barrel inserts for other calibers.
Now it's a """""survival""""" gun.

Yeah it seems they are all kinda built that way but I'll have to look into it.

That's a thing? I'm not sure I'd trust such a janky shotgun design for rifle calibers.

Now we're talking.
But what is the beer bottle on the barrel for? Stabbing?

The inserts are strong.

Fair enough, seems like more of a thing for a break action though since it looks like you can only load them one at a time.

>>33709532
i think it's a loudener

>>33709550
I'm not saying you ought to use them at a time, but they're still useful.

>>33709588
I'll keep that in mind.
