Urbansherpa Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) I am in Canada and have a Supernova with a 14" barrel. I've got it for sale somewhere on this forum.....but, I was wondering if it is worth selling the barrel alone and getting a longer one for myself. It's the one with the ghost ring sights. Is there a market in th US for 14" barrels and what would this be worth? I might be ble to get a few of them. Also, I'll see if I can get some collapsible stocks. People seem to want them. I had one but traded it for a Comfortech, which is much better for hunting. If selling my '14 incher' to an American is illegal, then please tell me. I don't know US laws. Thanks Karl Edited March 24, 2013 by Urbansherpa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medic650 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I'm not sure about what it's worth other than comparing price to other Benelli barrels and don't know about shipping it to US. In the US minimum shotgun barrel length is 18 inches unless the gun is registered with the ATF as a Short Barreled Shotgun, SBS. Not an impossibility but, requires filling out some and application with the Nationa Firearms Act branch of the ATF, paying a $200 excise tax, and awaiting approval. Right now I believe most approvals are taking about 6 months. SBS are teated the same as machine guns or suppressors. There are some on this forum with a SBS that could probably answer you with better authority though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbansherpa Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Gotcha. The shipping part is no problem as I live very near the US/Cdn border. Probably just drive it over and USPS it. I dont even think they're sold in the States. Our gun laws are so vastly different. I can ONLY fire my handguns on an approved range, yet I can buy a SBS over the counter and walk out 5 minutes later with it....and HUNT with it, too. All shotguns are treated the same (with the exception of modified, total under 26") Im going to work on some collapsible stocks. They seem to be quite sought after in the US. No legalities over here regarding them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paladinjme Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) There is nothing illegal or even regulated about a 14" shotgun barrel until it is attached to a receiver or if you happen to own a receiver to which it can be attached.

paladinjme Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I dont think barrels can be imported into the US.... Obviously not...that's why they are regularly available for purchase in the US...on guns and by themselves.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBen Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hey Urbansherpa, do you still have that 14" barrel for sale? I'm in Canada too, so that makes it easy. I'm interested in taking it off of your hands if you still have it for sale. Let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
df662 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Obviously not...that's why they are regularly available for purchase in the US...on guns and by themselves.... Obviously you have no clue about ATF import regulations.... Why dont you read up on it and get back to this thread.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbansherpa Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Ended up selling the whole gun and bought the Max-4 Camo version. Fits my needs better and the whole apocalypse thing didn't pan out either. Didn't see even ONE zombie. On the other hand, my clay scores went up appreciably!
