    Someone needs to just reinvent full brass shotshells so that semi-auto shotguns actually become viable

      >so that semi-auto shotguns actually become viable
      How would having brass shells accomplish this? Aren't most issues with semi-autos mostly due to low FPS loads like birdshot?

        Non-tube magazines can deform plastic hulls with the pressure on their sides.

            Again, isn't that mostly an issue with low FPS (read: low brass) shells?

            Nah, it's true. If left in a box mag long enough it can start to deform the shotshell. It tested it a few times. It usually took over 2 or 3 weeks two to deform tho, the fastest deform was around 2-3 days. Sometimes it was only a litte but sometimes significant. There wasn't any consistency, but there was a difference between manufactures

            And paper shells, which are about as common as low brass in the year of our /k/ube 2023.

            No, it's an issue with being made out of plastic and being vertically compressed by a spring

            Bullshit and fuddlore.

      Your solution is to make the ammo even heavier?

    A good description of it I've heard was "An answer to a problem that didn't exist". It's really cool in Call of Duty though.

    Shitty design that's been around for 50 years without a shred of interest from any military or LE force on the planet.

      It never did anything that couldn't be done by significantly cheaper and less complex designs

      Pretty much, from what I recall when it first burst onto the scene, the thing is heavy as frick, which means to integrate it into a squad means you lose a rifleman which no one really wanted to do.

      Additionally those smart 12 gauge grenade rounds that were super hyped never got adopted or properly released from what I recall or simply never made it out of prototype stage which was one of the potential main draws of it. Being able to drum feed fully automatic micro grenades was a cool idea, but nothing ever came together.

    The magic doesn't work in closed bolt, which means no good semi version can be marketed to cash in on the hype.

    are shotguns even relevant anymore? outside of breeching?

    • 11 months ago

      They sure pack a mean punch and are easy and very instinctive to shoot. I'd say they are relevant and will likely stay relevant for a long time

      A 18.5/72ish(12 gauge) caliber gun with a capacity of more then 3 (4,5,6,7,8, 9 ....capacity tubes) that is not very heavy, is reliable for relatively cheap or you can go for a decent semiauto if you got cash.
      Its the closest oneshot stop for HD barring extreme shit like stopping rifles.
      Cums in 20,16,12 and 10 gauge depending on your particular needs . 12 being very very common. 10 is a bit of a massive overkill but if that doesnt stop a mutherfricker you are fighting the t800.

    The reason it failed is the mini 12 ga grenades it was designed to fire never panned out they were to complex too expensive and did not pack enough punch to make anyone drool for them.

    Tldr, the repros were put on indefinite hiatus because the guy who owns the dies for the gun got pissed they made their own dies with blueprints and then got the atf involved.

      Yeah most of the shotties sucked ass except the striker and maybe the usas. AA-12 required scavenger if you planned to run it longer than one kill and range if you wanted to kill anything out of knifing distance

    why hasn't the military expressed a need for a full auto shotgun?

    Limited range? heavy gun/ammo? Too 'specialized' a role? does a full auto shotgunner get smoked by everyone, statistically?

      Ammo and firearm size.
      Ammo is huge and heavy. Recoil is heavy so the gun has to be huge to contain all the recoil attenuation mechanisms.
      And the utility of it is mixed.
