Pump Action Double Barrel Shotgun Redux

Recommended Posts

I remember creating a thread long ago about double barrel pump action shotguns (from video games like Turok 2, Chasm: The Rift, Quake 2 maybe even the first one, etc) in the past and if it was possible to create and if they even existed, since I can't bump that thread (goes against Doomnworld rules even my own threads) I decided to create another thread.

Anyway looks like someone did finally made a pump action double barrel shotgun...

That being said, that double-barrel pump-action shotgun has no real advantage over a normal one: any "double fire" advantage it may have gets offset by the weight of being two shotguns soldered into one, excessive pumping/cocking power required, and horrible handling. I'd rather have these:



or a normal hunting semiauto.

It's too bad really, the concept is interesting, but once again proving that video game concepts don't necessarily translate to the reality engine very well.

No, it's not fake. I don't think a youtube video could ever do a firearm justice simply because shooting guns irl is loud as hell.

For example, I had the opportunity to shoot one of these yesterday


This video makes it sound like a toy, when it's actually quite deafening.

what about the Neostead 2000?

I think those are the tube magazines on top. Still a single-barrel shotgun.

Aw, it would be so damn tacticool if there was a double-barrel mag-fed shotgun that can fire semi-auto on alternating barrels. Flip a switch and fire both barrels at once, but will need to use the pump action afterwards to chamber both rounds in. Ah, I guess it's best left to videogames.

That would kick ass, the fucking "Riot Controller".

It doesn't sound the least bit fake. It sounds like shotguns sound like if I take a vid with my phone.

Well, that's exactly how I would've done it. Weld two single barrel pump actions together using one with a right ejection port and one with a left, make an enlarged buttstock with bolts that will mount to both receivers, and an enlarged forestock that will cover both magazine tubes. Maybe if you're feeling it you could weld a small metal bar between the two triggers so it always fires both barrels. Maybe some day if I get enough money and some shotguns to waste I'll try it, might be fun if impractical. I'd imagine it would kick like a bitch firing both barrels at once, but no more than a regular side by side. To say the least firing both barrels on a 10 gauge side by side eight times in a row gave me a sore shoulder. Fun, but sore, never had a firearm actually lift up my left foot.
