The gangsters might have won their case by arguing that sawed-off shotguns were used by U.S. infantrymen in World War I. However, neither Miller, Layton nor their attorney showed up in court. Only the prosecution presented its case.

"sawed off" shotguns are perfectly legal and sold today. It depends on which end is sawed off. I know because I own one. It is called a Winchester Defender aka Campers shotgun.

Another fine example of how you operate on the threads.
Cutting off the barrel of the shotgun is what makes it "sawed-off", not because it has a pistol grip.
