So, is it illegal to have a short barrel in your possesion, even if it's not on a gun? Say I have a 26" barrelled 870, then next to it I have a 14" barrel, just sitting there. Reason I'm asking is because "theoretically", if SHTF, all the guns were banned or taken away, all the laws on what's legal went out the window, cause it would all be illegal, it would kinda be nice to have a real short barrel "somebody" could throw on real quick.
