Shop short-barreled shotguns with barrels under 18 inches for compact home defense. The federal NFA tax on SBS is $0 as of January 1, 2026, but many states restrict short-barreled shotguns, so confirm your state law before ordering. They ship only to FFLs, and we never ship to California. Call (410) 419-9896 if you have questions about the process. Looking for a compact rifle instead? See our short-barreled rifles (SBR).
