Yes, it is legal. However, it is illegal to hunt migratory birds with a shotgun that holds more than 3 shells (2 in magazine, 1 in chamber). That is why many "bird guns" come already plugged. All self defense shotguns have the plug removed. I believe in most states you can hunt deer and other game with unplugged shotguns.

What does removing the plug on a shotgun do?

A shotgun typically stores 5 rounds in its magazine. In some countries, when hunting certain types of game, you are only allowed 3 rounds in your magazine. The "plug" therfore goes into the magazine and takes up the space that two rounds would occupy., reducing the shotgun's magazine capacity be 2 and making it legal. Thus removing the plug restores the shotgun's capacity for a full magazine.
