@jrwel14 Does it i thought it would make it lighter and make the recoil worse. Then again if it does reduce the recoil it means that its just less powerful cos it aint burning all the powder
@mrdojob I first heard of the super shorty in a gun magazine. The author said,"Why is there a 20ga version when the 12 ga has such little kick to it?" Then, he said that with the very short barrels, as on the Shorty, the shorter barrel produces less energy than longer barrels. Guess it has to do with physics. As water going out of a narrow hose is faster than a wider one.
@jrwel14 The author of the magazine said the shorty is great for the shorter distances. As, those on yachts, home defense, the US marshalls service would also find a great use for them, as well. He mentioned one company that sells shorter than normal shells. Which would turn the shorty into a 5 shot. Some pumps can handle them, some can't.
@mrdojob But, in either case. The shorter barrels reduces recoil. But, in another shotgun, The Ithica Auto and Burglar gun. A short double barrel 20 ga. The barrles are longer than the shorty. So, more recoil is produced. Also, the H&R Handy gun. a single shot 410 with 10-12" barrels. The barrel is longer in that gun as well. So, those 2 guns, with barrels about the same length. The barrel is long enough to produce more recoil than the shorty. The shorty has a very short barrel.recoil is less.
@PbDude2 I agree. For the size and number of shots you get from it you may as well get an AOW side-by-side. Would seem like a better option to my mind.
oh fuck the first round made me say OH FUCK

The barrel being so short cuts down on the recoil. Great gun!

@jrwel14 Nope lol not physics. Its just not burning all the powder before the shot leaves the barrel cos it don't have the length.
Less powder = less energy

@dime6664ever Yeah. Horrible weapons for anything except for breaching, and even then, there are way better options.

looks kinda accurate at close range.
Saw this shorty on the miami vice tv show back in 85

@kinmanyuen cutting down the barrel of a shotgun does not reduce the accuracy, just the velocity of the ammo fired through it
