for me it's:>side-by-side>individual triggers for each barrel>12 gauge>internal hammers>no auto-ejectors>found in a pawn shop for $150 with chipped furniture and a bit of pitting on the metal
>>65063193for me it's the same as what you said but with auto ejectors and a sawed off barrel and stock, or possibly leaving the stock on like in Doom 2.
DP12
O/U 20 ga with ejectors and a single trigger (switchable for barrel preference).

This size queen right here.This is a double 4-bore made by John Dickson for Charles Gordon, a famous and eccentric arms collector. It was ordered on Christmas Day 1888 and took three years to build.It is difficult to explain how unusual this gun is. Normally 4-bore shotguns were single barrels. A double is extremely rare. Dickson only ever made two double 4-bores in the entire history of the company. There were probably fewer than 20 made if you added up all the big name makers of the day. Also, 4-bores tended to be plain because they were used for market hunting, and few of them survived the wet, rough conditions. This is unique. Because it was commissioned by a collector rather than a working hunter it's top quality and remained that way. It has excellent engraving, remains in fantastic condition, and is cased with every accessory under the sun.It gets even better. Unlike most 4-bores which used 3 ounces of shot, this was build and proofed for a full 4 ounces. And, the drunken Scotsmen who built it clearly knew what they were doing because In the 1980's it was proofed again in London for Nitro (smokeless) powder, also with a full 4-oz charge. Yeah, that's right, it's been over a century since it was made and this baby shoots full-power smokeless shells. She's a big girl (44in barrels) and is rather sensitive about her weight (24 lbs), but she speaks with authority.

ONLY 2 barrels?

>>65064325Pump is better for all that tho
>>65066417Semi, maybe, but for hunting pump would throw off your followup shot.
>>65067268>>65066417For most hunting/clays applications a double mogs a pump or semi for several reasons-There's no bolt wasting space and weight in the gun. Balance is better. It also means the gun can have longer barrels for the same overall length, or you can have the same size barrels in a shorter, quicker-pointing, package.-You have two chokes in the same gun at once, meaning you can choose which to fire first for a given shot-You can have two entirely different shells in the gun, ready for either large or small game if you're stalking innawoods-Your second shot is instantaneous, and it cannot jam, short-stroke, or misfeed. Even if your first shot is a dud or a mechanical failure you still have a second barrel ready to goPumps do have some advantages. They're much more economical. A Maverick 88 is reliable. A Turkshit double that costs 3x as much is not. The single barrel of a pump or semi is preferable if you want to pretend that your shotgun is a rifle, like hunting with slugs or shooting turkeys.

>>65063193You just described my Izh-58M to a T
>>65067277Anecdotally I have a friend that prefers semi because he claims it has less felt recoil. Personally I can't see it though.
>>65067320It's believable to an extent. The mechanism in a semi takes some energy to operate, though in my experience the effect is pretty minor. It's not always true either, The Auto-5 can have brutal recoil if the friction rings are in poor condition or it's not set up correctly, the barrel & bolt hit the back of the receiver like a battering ram thanks to its long-recoil action. The bigger factor, IMHO, is that many modern semis have stocks that are designed to flex and absorb recoil, and that actually works. For example the Benelli ComforTech. Also most modern semis and pumps have much better buttpads compared to a classic gun. Look at that fucking cannon with no pad at all, just a steel plate >>65064992Something that people tend over overlook these days is that there are lots of variations of how different kinds of double shotguns are built. A gun for upland hunting tends to be built very light because you walk a lot but don't shoot very much. On the other hand a 'pigeon gun', or it's modern equivalent tends to be built heavy because you are walking very little but shooting a lot. The drop at the stock and the sighting arrangements can vary too, which is how you end up with those strange Trap guns with the super high sight rib.
