How about a 10 Gauge (3 1/2" Magnum) version of Mossberg's new non-NFA SBS with a 16" barrel

[Captain O]

If you can handle the recoil generated by such a self-defense piece, a 4+1 magazine capacity with 3.5" shells and 5+1 2 7/8" shells might be interesting with 0000 (.38") diameter buckshot.

Talk about a "show stopper"! The blast alone will disorient anyone within 30 feet and a 2-ounce rifled slug would be quite effective for plenty of car-stopping applications.

And if fired from inside a room, you would blow your eardrums out.

HUH? WHAT? EH?

I presume that the 12 gauge won't do that... right?

 

[Kruel J]

I would assume either wouldn't be good!

And TBH, I have always wanted a 10 gauge. I missed a break open single shot listed here a while back.

They would probably sell a few just to the show it and never shoot it crowd. Be interesting to watch some try it. I watched a few video's of these and the one that I liked a lot was a guy showing an adapter he bought off Amazon for it. Made it work with those mini shells. Looked very easy to control. Not really sure what I would do with it but it made me kind of want one of these little cannons.

When you can launch 12 0000 round balls from that puppy, there would be a big ugly outlaw biker nearly cut in half on the other end.

Launching those against a terrorist would deliver a great deal of satisfaction, wouldn't it?

I would still like a 24" barreled slide-action 10 Gauge shotgun with a full-length magazine. (6 rounds of 3 1/2 Magnum and 8 rounds of 2 7/8 Short Magnums.

Really mean!

A cut down, pump, 10-gauge ... I can dig it. If for no other reason for how gonzo it would be. Though some would consider it sacrilege, a Browning BPS could be used a base-gun.

My Serbu Super Shorty is pretty unpleasant with regular 12-gauge 2¾" shells. I'd reckon 10-gauge, 3½" shells out of shorty, albeit significantly longer and heavier gun, would be a blast, if you'll pardon the pun. Either way, hold on tight!

Heh a Serbu 2+1 10 Ga with a 3-4 round side saddle now were talking!

LOL! Well said.

I had a buddy on another forum put forth a similar suggestion, instead he suggested one of the single-shot break action guns and using all-brass shells loaded with birdshot scavenged from the cheap stuff. He was talking about an SBS though, almost a Mad-Maxian handheld planetary annihilator.
