Screw on an extended mag tube and voila, it falls under the definition from the article.

An extended mag tube is only practical on a long-barreled shotgun. They claim their objective is to ban tactical shotguns. Why would anyone choose a long-barreled shotgun as a tactical weapon?

I have 8 rounds in a LEGAL short barreled shotgun.

How hard was that?

Minimum length is 18”, most pump shotguns of that length only have a 5 round tube mag. But most 20” guns have an 8 round tube mag - see Mossberg 590 for an example. That’s not terribly overlong for tactical use.

A 24-26” barrel isn’t that unwieldy. The mere fact that one can be screwed on virtually any pump gun or autoloader is all these dirt bags need for an excuse to ban them.
