What are the federal laws on sks'?

The SKS is a semi-automatic rifle. Don't cut the barrel shorter than 16" (or alter the rifle so that its OVERALL length, measured from the muzzle crown to the end of the stock, makes it shorter than 26 inches) unless you have prior approval to make a short barreled rifle and have paid for and received the $200 NFA tax stamp.The SKS is an imported firearm. Don't make it less sporting and more combat tactical by adding a bunch of paramilitary accessories unless you replace a bunch of the foreign-made parts with USA-made parts. See federal law 18 USC Section "922r" for details on ths.Those are the only two federal laws I can think of that an SKS owner might get in trouble over.

It can be, depending on the action the gun uses. It can also be illegal if you cut the barrel length below the legal limit. In the US, a Title 1 rifle must have a minimum barrel length of 16 inches, and a Title I shotgun must have a minimum barrel length of 18 inches.

Not sure what you mean by a "12 barrel." If it is a 12 inch long barrel, it has been cut off and is an illegal firearm. In any case, .410 single-shot Stevens guns bring $100 in top condition. sales@countrygunsmith.net

If a stock on a 22 rimfire rifle is cut off for a pistol grip can the barrel be shortened to pistol length?

Probably not a good idea. A rifle barrel has to be 16 inches. There is an overall legal length as well. If you have any doubt call your local police or sheriffs department. Getting caught with an illegal .22 can be as serious as getting caught with an illegal machine gun.


Can a rifle be cut and made into a pistol?

It could be done, but there's the legality matter. Once it's manufactured and sold as a rifle, in the eyes of law enforcement, it's always a rifle. So, once you cut down that barrel to pistol length, if you haven't gotten the NFA tax stamp to do it, then you've created an illegal SBR (short-barreled rifle), and could face up to 10 years in prison for it.
