A 12" smoothbore barrel makes it a short barreled shotgun and an NFA

Humm...that would indeed likely fall into the Any Other catagory..which
is a $5 tax stamp.

More like a Marble Game Getter.

Or one could simply make the barrel 18.125" long and not bother with the
authorities. clamp the barrel half way, and it becomes much more
managable. The receiver only needs to be about 2" long to fit all the
lock parts and firing pin. making the entire assembly about 20"
long.....there might be an issue there too....

It still needs to be 26"+ OAL.

Then one could simply make a muzzle loading barrel and call it a model
cannon with a much shorter barrel....

Nah, just adapter one of those new Ruger pistols based on the 10-22
action.

Huh? Wish I had not missed this one. Sounds interesting as heck.
