So what?? Now they are going to start shooting taxpayers?
That must be why they re-instated the Federal Inheritance Tax.

Plain jane 870 runs about $300 ..this hopped up deal they demand is about a grand plus a 200 dollar class 3 tax stamp which they won't have to pay because the NFA might not apply to the IRS and they want 60 of them ....wow

here is what you have, just knock off 4 inches to the barrel ...kind of ugly if you ask me

I sent an email teasing about this to a guy I know in the IRS. These are for their drug interdiction teams. I told him that was a good thing, because now that I know about these, they would be under gunned when they showed up at my office.
