Short Barrel Shotguns
NFA / Class III • SBS • Qualified Buyers
Genuine NFA-registered short-barreled shotguns for qualified buyers — from the compact Kel-Tec KSG bullpup to the battle-proven Mossberg 590A1. Every SBS transfers only through a proper ATF Form 4 and Class III dealer, with a federal tax stamp. Reach out and we’ll walk you through eligibility and the process.
NFA Short Barrel Shotguns at Keep Shooting
A short-barreled shotgun (SBS) is a shotgun with a barrel under 18 inches or an overall length under 26 inches — a compact, maneuverable platform that’s regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA). For qualified buyers, we offer genuine registered SBS models and handle every transfer by the book. The Kel-Tec KSG Tactical and Mossberg 590A1 are part of our NFA lineup.
Who can buy. SBS models are legal to own in many states, but not all — and eligibility depends on your state and local law. Ownership requires that you be legally able to possess an NFA firearm and that your jurisdiction permits it. If you’re not sure whether you qualify, that’s the first thing to sort out before anything else.
How the transfer works. An NFA firearm doesn’t ship to your door. It moves from our inventory to a Class III / SOT dealer near you, and the transfer to you is completed on an ATF Form 4 with a $200 tax stamp, fingerprints, photos, and a background check. ATF approval typically takes time, so patience is part of the process. Once approved, you take possession through your local dealer.
What we carry. The Kel-Tec KSG Tactical is a compact bullpup pump shotgun with dual magazine tubes for high capacity in a short, easy-handling package. The Mossberg 590A1 is the heavy-barreled, military-grade version of the legendary 590 pump — the same rugged workhorse trusted for hard use, now in a short-barreled configuration.
