I think you are missing the detail of his post. It looks like he just sold the barrel, not a barrel and reciever.

Nope I understood that. A shotgun barrel by itself under 18" requires paperwork as class 3.

Interesting, I was under the impression that you could possess a barrel <18" as long as you did not posses a shotgun receiver. I was not aware that posessing a barrel alone in and of itself would go against ATF regs.

You can buy short barreled AR uppers from just about any shop and they are not a registered weapon by themselves. As long as one does not posses an AR reciever at the same time, there are no ATF regs that are being violated that I am aware of. Maybe shotguns are treated differently or I could just be misinformed.

The only SBR I have is a registered AMD65 so I don't have that much experience with class 3 stuff.

Well first I should have said "I think" it is class 3 (maybe it is another class or name). What I meant was I understood that the original poster sold just the barrel. My only experience with this is a close friend is a local PD firearm instructor and he said the PD had to get Fed paperwork before they could buy the 14" barrels they needed to fit shotguns in the new crusier racks they had (18" was too long). Perhaps I indicated I knew more than I do. I have never read the laws except state law which says you cannot have a under 18" barrel and receiver as you said. I think my second post came across too strong, maybe I am wrong about this.
