Depending on how much you saw off, yes.
A shorter barrel creates a wider shot pattern.

Get a shorter barrel and swich it out or saw off part of the one you have.
Answer Felony under federal law.. At least 1 yr or more in prison, unless deal is made with prosecution. (BTW, a sawed off shotgun does nothing for shooting the gun. It only provides better concealment) Actually, that answer is only partially correct. First, you can have a shotgun with a sawed off barrel in any state if the barrel is still more than 18 inches long and the overall length of the shotgun is 26 inches. Second, if you saw of the barrel to less than 18 inches or the overall length to less than 26 inches, it becomes a class III or NFA weapon. Those are legal to own in 38 or 39 states. You must apply to the ATF for approval and pay a tax fee. If you do this without ATF approval, that's when it is a felony. Third, sawing the barrel off does in fact change the way the gun shoots. Generally speaking it will make the recoil heavier because the gun will be lighter, and it creates a wider shot pattern for buckshot or birdshot.
from what I have the 28 " 2 3/4 & 3" magnum barrel is aprox .060 and the smooth bore slugster barrel(24") is aprox .073...I also saw on a post that the 2 3/4 non magnum barrell was .108 (aprox )
Collectors are starting to look at any shotguns bigger than a 10 gauge.I just saw a 8 gauge used to feed a logging camp go for 400 dollars on a site.I would say that seeing you have a single barrel instead of a double barrel shotgun,it could go for anywhere from 100-500 dollars depending on overall condition of the shotgun in question.These will be used for strickley wall hanger status,as there is no commercial 4 gauge loads available today.
I have a 12 ga. double barrel side by side shotgun made in 1936 and a while back I saw it in a book, it was worth about 1800 so I dont know if that helps or not but its a start
Yes it is. But the derringer must shoot non-shotgun ammo, otherwise it is classed as a saw-off shotgun and illegal. 22 LR/SR derringers are acceptable, as are .38 spl, .44 cal, etc.
No, it isnt. You saw it, you keep it.
I just saw one on sale for $140.00
