SRM Arms Model 1216 Shotgun: 16 round rotating magazine

SRM Arms have developed a semi-automatic shotgun that has a 16 round detachable rotating magazine that takes 2 3/4 or 3″ shells.

The overall length is 34″ with 18″ barrel. The NFA version has 12 or 9 inch barrel with a magazine capacity of 12 or 8 rounds.

9″ barrel NFA version.

With detached magazine.

The only thing that would make this cooler is a bullpup version, although I do not know if that would be possible with the magazine.

    I like it. I like it very much. A semiauto shotgun carrying sixteen rounds of 3″ magnum #000 Buck has much to recommend it as an implement of CQB for home defense, assuming that it functions reliably.

    But will the BATmen permit it to be produced for us peasants? Or will they declare it to have “no sporting purpose” and restrict its possession to military and LEOs only?

    They have a ‘normal’ version and an NFA version so I assume the normal will be civilian legal, although with the way the elections are going, they could be outlawed before they make it into production!

    Saw this on another site, and like the concept. Unlike some magazine fed shotguns, this magazine design looks like it would be very reliable.

    I do hope it makes it out to those of us lowly plebeians.

    They mention a ‘civilian’ version so it should make it to us plebs!
