If you install a rifled barrel in a 12-guage shotgun, then I think you do have a 12-guage rifle.
with a slug barrel, its still considered a shotgun as it is still designed to use plastic shotshells.
else, it would be a .729 calibre rifle, which too big. i believe it would have to be registered as a DD.

It's not well known, but any shotgun with a bore over .5" can be deemed a destructive device at the government's will. That's what happened with the Striker/Streetsweeper/Jackhammer shotguns. There was never any legislation or EO to outlaw them. The Secretary of the Treasury simply declared that they had no sporting purpose and were henceforth considered destructive devices.

Giuliani is NOT to be trusted. He's a RINO. Just as Hillary will temporarily put aside many of her most strident liberal beliefs to get elected, so to will RINOs like Rudy.Yeah. Not "right now", just AFTER I get elected, when I'll join my gun-grabbing democrat brothers and sisters in pushing for a total ban on handguns and "assault weapons".
I agree 100% with you guys. An anti-gunner doesn't change his or her stripes - if they're so emotional over the gun issue that they can't come down on the correct side of it, then I don't trust them - period - because that kind of emotional problem doesn't just go away. There's also a huge contempt for the average person implicit in the "let's ban all/most guns" position, especially coming from a pol. Its the old "I know what's best for you" paternalism, which in other nations has resulted in horrible dictatorships and has made the commission of genocides possible.
Show me an anti-gun pol, and you'll have shown me someone who won't get my vote, EVER.

a semiauto 12-guage AK47 variant and semiauto bullpup AK47 variant. Every home should have 'em.

as he ... paves the way for a potential presidential run, Rudy Giuliani is prudently backing off from his history of anti-gun demagoguery.
So, how many people are silly enough to believe him?

I agree completely, and...
AMEN to your statement, Show me an anti-gun pol, and you'll have shown me someone who won't get my vote, EVER.
It comes down to this:
JUST SAY NO TO RINOS (and democrats, and the rest of their gun-grabbing ilk).

I wanna saiga 12! you have taste :)
get one asap - lord alone knows if they'll remain importable, or for how long. I wouldn't wish on anyone the irk of the 18 months I had to wait through to get mine (it took that long for another company to import them here)
sheesh, that would do some damage to the drywall! :)
ayyuh - bear in mind that I don't generally like shotguns, and then evaluate the following advocacy: Among the many firearms I own, the Saiga-12 is my favorite. :D
Absolute beauties!
and Chuckie Schumer & Co. actually think they're ugly! what nances.
We need to hit a gun show.
believe it or not, I have never once been to a gun show, despite dozens (hundreds?) of local opportunities.

There is a 12 gauge rifle out there, for all you recoil junkies - the
12 Gauge from Hell. The designer addressed the DD registration by using a rimmed case and a chamber that would accept 12 gauge shot shells.
