Hi Charles and welcome. This would be legal but not all FFL's are in the know. Cheers and stay safe!

Hi Charles, no sir, this is NOT CA legal. The classification of a 'firearm' has nothing to do with CA law. Prohibited - Pistol-grip firearms expelling a shotgun shell that are 26" or longer in overall length, but with smooth-bore barrels shorter than 18" in length are not being transferred by California FFLs. Regardless whether pump-action or semi-automatic, this category includes the Mossberg Shockwave, Remington Tac-14, Emperor Arms Duke / Mogul series, Charles Daly Honcho, RIA VRF14 and the like.
