It would seem so, although as a bear of relatively little brain, I'd like to hear more informed opinions.

It's an AOW because the barrel is under 18".

In case of the SERBU, I think it might not be AOW because it can be concealed easily. Not sure though....

I'm pretty sure the serbu is a AOW as its both a short barreled shot gun and it is also bellow the min OAL lenght.

MB owns one ask him.

I've got one as well, it is classified as AOW and I would guess that is due to the O.A.L. being below the minimum length which I think is 26". No big deal to get though, just a $5 stamp.

doesn't it also have a vertical front grip? ( swing down slide dealie)  that is also something you need a AOW stamp when its on a pistol.

That's correct from my understanding as well. If you put a VFG on a pistol it makes it a AOW.

Side question on this issue:
A friend has a single shot shotgun that had the barrel damaged and in order to cut it and recrown it, would put it just under 18". Replacement barrels are not produced and he has searched the net and gun shows, but to no avail.
Now, on to the rat killin', could he apply for an AOW stamp and then have the barrel cut down?

I've looked into some things, but had not thought of the AOW category.....thanks.
