So a long time ago i was at an estate sale. I went to check out the guns and immediately noticed everything was an antique or collector piece and way outside my meager means or knowledge base.
One of the guns I saw there was... interesting.
It was a shotgun, and right now i can't remember if it was pump or semiauto... but i'm 95% sure it was not really either.
there was a short magazine tube for just a few shells, but it was along the top front left of the receiver. yup.
If I'm remembering correctly, when you cycled it, it would open/eject, but it would also shoot a little carrier back from the magazine tube with one shell, which you then flipped over on top of the receiver to drop the shell into a loading port. the carrier would spring back and ride forward when you closed the action to grab another shell from the tube.
I have no idea what this shotgun was, but it was a very interesting piece, and it's floated around in my head for at least 15 years with me wondering about it.
Any ideas?
If nobody knows, no big deal, and I guess i'm just sharing interesting design i once saw floating around that i thought you might get a kick out of hearing about, because i sure as crap have never seen another one like it.
