Since a similar  thread elsewhere was locked , I will repost  my input here.  

Under current Federal Law and Regulations the BATF DOES HAVE the authority to BAN IMPORTATION of ANY FIREARM
they rule is NON-SPORTING.

FED SHOTGUN STUDY

Friday, January 28, 2011

"On Thursday, Jan. 27, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives released a Study on the Importability of Certain Shotguns, which proposes that “military shotguns, or shotguns with common military features that are unsuitable for traditional shotgun sports” be prohibited from importation. This would apply to all shotguns—not just semi-automatics. As in previous “working group” studies on rifles, the study fails to give proper credit to the widespread use of these guns in newer shooting sports, or to their adaptability to hunting.
The study underscores the need for Congress to change the firearm importation law. "...

BTW - The study states that Practical shooting competitions and plinking are not considered "sporting purposes"  

Start sending cards and letters people.
