Sounds entirely rational to me. It is indeed the handguns that are the problem and there
can be no valid reason for those as anything other than an anti-person weapon.

Shotguns can easily be used as "anti-person" weapons. The
modification is simple.


Indeed, BUT they are less than ideal, and they do have other valid uses,
and are hard to conceal unless sawn off, and a sawn off shotgun is ipso
facto a very serious thing to have in your possession.
