auto-loading bullpup shotgun
WeaponsLooking more like some form of sci-fi prop gun than an actual firearm, this weapon uses a system of three different magazines to field 15 12-gauge shotgun shells within a comparatively compact design. As the weapon's trigger assembly is situated forwards of the chamber and magazines in what is termed as a 'bullpup' design, the firearm's notably more compact than its peers despite having a higher capacity when compared against more classically designed shotguns.
