Update: I wonder how long before those Benelli extensions are classified as Destructive Devices? They did that with supposed Street Sweepers (aka, shotguns with high capacity magazines):

In early 1994, ATF decided (in ATF Rulings 94-1 and 94-2) that three 12 gauge shotgun models, the USAS 12, Striker 12, and Street Sweeper, were destructive devices, owing to their non-sporting character, and having a bore over 1/2 inch, as all 12 gauge shotguns do.

The Striker, with a 12 round capacity, is a Destructive Device subject to a $200 NFA tax, whereas some shotguns hold 9. I guess those three extra rounds make it particularly dangerous. And, just curious, what authority does the ATF have to classify a shotgun as a Destructive Device?
