[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 4368001, member: 6064"] 922 (r) compliance specifies that if you put on a "longer tube" on an import shotgun you also have to have at least 3 U.S. made parts to bring it into compliance. So to meet the criteria for Beretta to "legally" put a tube on it it would need a US manufactured hammer, trigger, and extractor as an example. Since there are no US manufactured parts for this shotgun they were not in compliance so ATF said no by following their ruling from 30 years ago. Right, wrong, stupid or not Beretta knew this and was just trying to to fly under the radar. I can guarantee they knew, because when Benelli started their 3-gun series of M2s and M4s we all had a big meeting with Benelli and Beretta on how to handle the problem. In this case the ATF didn't suddenly decide to stop them, they have been enforcing this for 30 years [/QUOTE]
