This appears to be an AA-12 Atchisson assault shotgun, which I had never seen until today. This thing is awesome and I thought you guys might like to have a look at it in action if you haven't seen it already.

More info on it here: http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh29-e.htm

Hey Guys....

God is that thing ugly..

I fired a USAS 12 in FA with a 25 round drum mag..
That thing was a trip to shoot...

25 rounds were gone ,,,just like that..It surely is a Beast to hang onto...

That's what you need for bear defense

The Atchisson's been around since the 70s.

Thomas Swearengen wrote it up in his book The World's Fighting Shotguns in 1978 (?)

Well I guess that answers my question in the other thread.

Haha that is what sprang to my mind as well. There'll be no bear left!

Thanks for mentioning that. Speaking of the USAS 12... Check these out:

It isn't used in the first vid right away, so just wait 'til it comes around. It's worth it.

That's what surprised me about the OP's video link. It seems as if the recoil on that Atchisson was very manageable.

Yeehaw! Shooting the long gun equivalent of IPSC matches with an M60 must be a treat.
