I have a 20 ga pump, sold by New Haven, says "Made by Mossberg" same as Mossberg 500. I have been wanting to shorten the barrel and put a pistol grip on it as it would be a bit unwieldy to use for home defense with the full length barrel. I don't really have any other use for it.
1. How short can the barrel legally be cut down (shortened) ? I'm in Texas if it matters.
2. Where do you measure from?
3. Can I use a pipecutter?
4. What would I need to do to the inside of the barrel after cutting it? I don't intend to fire slugs in it, just buckshot.
5. Is the 26"overall length still the law?
