(b) A firearm that has an overall length of less than 26 inches and that is designed or redesigned to fire a fixed shotgun shell. (a) A firearm that is designed or redesigned to fire a fixed shotgun shell and has a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length. (b) Nothing shall prevent a device defined as a "handgun" from also being found to be a short-barreled rifle or a short-barreled shotgun.Īs used in Sections 1650, Sections 17720 to 17730, inclusive, Section 17740, Article 1 (commencing with Section 27500) of Chapter 4 of Division 6 of Title 4, and Article 1 (commencing with Section 33210) of Chapter 8 of Division 10 of Title 4, "short-barreled shotgun" means any of the following:
(a) As used in this part, "handgun" means any pistol, revolver, or firearm capable of being concealed upon the person. ĬA laws also allows handguns to be classified as SBR/SBS. The Taurus Judge is considered a SBS under CA laws (making it illegal in CA), because it has a less than 18" barrel and a less than 26" overall length and it can shoot a shotgun shell. The Taurus Judge has a rifled barrel, which is why under Federal laws it is a Title 1 handgun. So then a Taurus Judge is also illegal in CA? A buddy in AZ just got one and while it is a novelty gun, it's pretty cool to shoot! Is it illegal here because of no rifling in barrel and thus considered a short barrel shotgun?
