why does it require a tax stamp?

Oh damn. I've wanted one of these for years and that one looks like it's in great condition. Unfortunately my new gun budget is all spent up for a while.

Good luck with your sale, whatever new owner it finds is a lucky one.

. I thought the same thing when I purchased it but apparently the ATF listed that particular gun as a destructive device.

Yeah, the choice of which semi-auto shotguns are DDs and which are not is frustratingly arbitrary. Can't transfer this easily but a Kel-Tec, Tavor, or Saiga semi-auto, magazine fed, 12GA shotgun is no problem for some reason.

But I'm already in the NFA games with suppressors and SBRs, so whatever. I'd go for it anyway if I had the funds.

Wow, that brings back some memories! I really wanted one as well but back in the day they were expensive.

I did get a chance to fire a full auto version courtesy of an NFA dealer at one of the ARPC machine gun shoots.

The USAS along with the ghastly Cobray "Street Sweeper" got on the ATF's naughty list (if I remember correctly due to certain OLMC's affinity for them) and were subsequently reclassified as Destructive Devices (No sporting value). Legitimate owners were allowed to amnesty register them tax free (sound familiar?).

Yours looks to be in excellent condition, and priced right as well!

I have seen other $2500+ Mag fed shotguns (looking at you 2-3 gun competitors), so this is not unrealistic for such an uncommon shotgun.

Wish I had the discretionary funds for it

Good luck with your sale!
