Maybe they are being fickle on the word "smoothbore".

I’m also curious if it’s something that the ATF can keep changing its mind on like the pistol braces. Could owners of this thing become instant felons when the ATF decides to reinterpret something?

I think Glock cuts the twits the when "rifling" the barrel. What I'm suggesting is making a barrel with a strait hexagon hole and then twisting the barrel.
I think it would be considered a smooth bore before twisting and I don't think twisting the barrel would be considered "rifling".
Maybe it's some sort of set trigger where you pull it once to set, then the trigger returns to it's starting position, and you pull it a second time to fire. Two trigger pulls get one discharge of the firearm. I don't like that idea, but it seems like it might fit with the various legally definitions based on my limited knowledge. Second pulls on set triggers can be crazy light. Just keeping your finger in contact with the trigger might be enough force to actuate the second pull.

This strikes me as a gimmick. Plus Franklin Armory is not exactly known for quality. I’ll pass.
FWIW I don't think they can exploit any California SBR loophole but who knows... Other unfriendly states would follow suit to ban.

According to a post on arfdcom it's not the trigger.
