Does anybody have a citation/statute in regards to this?
Thanks.
ETA:NVM. I think I found it:

Looks like the official BATFE exemption to having a 37mm, smooth bore barrel, on a M203 40mm Title 1 Receiver is covered under:
18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(4):DESTRUCTIVE DEVICE
26 U.S.C. § 5845(f)(2):DESTRUCTIVE DEVICE:
ATF Rul. 95-3: Section 5845(f)(3) excludes from the term “destructive device” any device which is neither designed or redesigned
for use as a weapon and
any device, although originally designed for use as a weapon, which is redesigned for use as a signaling,
pyrotechnic, line throwing, safety, or similar device.
Please, correct me if I missed something, and/or if there additional documentation backing up this statute.
