28ga Revolver

28ga Taurus Revolver however ...

“   Big gun, Short lived. Taurus 28 Gauge Revolver. On Friday night Michael Bane told me that BATFE visited the Taurus booth at SHOT Show and declared that the 28 gauge revolver was in fact a SBS (Short Barreled Shotgun), not a handgun. Guns America removed a blog post about the pistol (H/T: TruthAboutGuns) and replaced it with the following text... Editor Note: Taurus has removed this firearm from their booth and has elected to not make it at this time. The rifle version will be available through Rossi at some point. [The Firearm Blog] ” A 28 ga is, I believe, the bore equivalent of .55 cal.  Using the BATF's reasoning, then,  the S&W .50 cal would be a SBS if loaded with buckshot.  As a kid I used to shoot clay pigeons with a revolver using .22 cal clay pigeon. ammo.  Is this too now illegal?  Actually, this .28ga shotgun pistol should be relatively easy to build since it's smooth bore.  Would be handy in the coming days.  BTW, you can shoot a 12ga shotgun shell from a .12 ga flare gun.  Once. In a pinch. TRPOF
