ATF consider banning "military" style shotguns

[jcoosi]

Seen this article several different sites and they all quote this article http://www.greeleygazette.com/press/?p=9223

Just wondering if any of you have heard about this.

Yep old news, but it did drive the price of Saiga 12's from the $400-$500 to near the $900 and over mark! At least price has come down, but availability has still kept the price higher than it should.

I did check snopes before I posted and nothing came up but I knew if something was to it this would be the place to find out.

And also the first gun that came to mind was the sagia.

The military and police tend to use pump action "riot" style guns, not semi-autos, for shotguns, from what little I have seen of actual usage of shotguns (not terribly common for military, common enough for police). Unless I missed something??

ATF dealings are a bit too esoteric for Snopes

I wonder why the other news outlets decided to send out emails to their sites that were more recently posted with a short comment and link to this site where it shows April 2011: http://www.greeleygazette.com/press/?p=9223

Seems odd since it has already been squashed....
