There is a federal that prohibits any shotgun or rifle with a barrel length shorter than, I believe, 16". The state of Louisiana COULD inact a law that is stricter.

A sawed off shotgun is illegal depending on how much of it is cut off. It is illegal to own one less than 18 inches for the barrel or 28 inches for the gun.
Only if you don't follow all the rules and regualtions.
Tampering with a weapon. Either way ur turning something legal to illegal nowadays they try and get you for whatever they can. Sawed off shotguns are illegal because no reason for it unless to conceal or kill and I hear sawed off oposed to regular barrel size is groosume to get hit with

In the United States, it is illegal for a private citizen to possess a sawed-off modern smokeless powder shotgun (a barrel length less than 18 in. or 46 cm and an overall length less than 26 inches) without a tax-stamped permit from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, which requires an extensive background check and a $200.00 fee for every transfer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawed-off_shotgun

there is none
