“Is that considered legal?”

It is considered legal if the barrel is rifled. Shotguns have no rifling and any thing with a barrel length under 19 inches is verboten. But with a rifled barrel it is sold as a handgun and viola, a damn good home defense weapon. If you know how to use it.

18 inches is the minimum legal length without going into NFA territory. Sheesh. Every body is an expert.
