Yes, you use a spacer to lower the amount of rounds you can have in the shotgun. This is to abide by hunting laws that deal with limits (how much game you can kill).
I don't know much about Japanese gun laws but meeting a max capacity requirement by way of a spacer that's so trivially removed seems a little strange...
@Kevadu this is actually pretty common, even in the US. Federal law limits ammo capacity to 3 when hunting migratory birds. So it's easier and cheaper to limit your current gun rather than buying a specialized one
I inherited a shotgun (a 1932 Browning) from my father-in-law, and it had a hand-whittled stick in the tube as a spacer, making it only possible to load 2 rounds with one in the chamber.
Since I don't really hunt, I took it out; the tube holds 6, which seems either wild or reassuring, depending upon its intended use at the time of its manufacturing...

"Can I really shoot a person!?!" Person? That's a slaver. Subhuman scum.

That grandpa taught the wrong first lessons; it's "Never point your weapon at anything you don't intend to destroy", and "Always assume that your gun is loaded at all times", and "Keep your finger off the trigger at all times until you surely intend to fire."
