    Looking at that “shell” that’s airsoft. Not saying you couldn’t do something like this but I don’t think it’ll look like that, probably something a lot more beefy lol

      I’m very aware it’s airsoft, that’s precisely why I asked if anything like this exists and holy fuck I hope it does.

      As far as I’m concerned there are a couple of pistols, specifically revolvers that had secondary barrel in the middle of the cylinder and could shoot in a scattergun pattern; first one that came up on google was the LeMat Revolver.

      You are right, it would need to be steel levels of beefy to withstand a shotshell but nothing a SCS file and a trip to home depot couldn’t solve. I want that wrist breaking power but in a random striker-fired mag fed pistol that allows for under barrel accessory attachment.

      Admit it, it’d be dope.

        Leaving aside the legal issues (you could get a stamp for a SBS after all), it would be dope. Tough to do with full power, but the short shotshells ought to be achievable. Wait, even full power 12 gauge isn’t that high of a pressure. I think this would totally be doable!

        Maybe a Glock 17L as the pistol, to give you some rail room to work with. Seamless tubing for the barrel. Printed rail mount and pocket for FCG. Not sure what the internals would look like, but I’m thinking you could do a custom Glock frame that has a slot in the front of the trigger guard, and a trigger you would press forward to fire the shotty. That way both triggers are protected by the guard and ordinary fire discipline keeps you from AD. You just don’t have a lot of room for a hammer or striker, so it’s gonna take some thinking to work that out.
