Mossberg Chainsaw Pump Shotgun
I have not yet made it to the Mossberg booth at SHOT, but fellow blogger MJM did. Coming to a zombie movie near you!
MJM has a great photo of it over at his blog. I will be sure to check it out tomorrow.

1I swear, you morons dont know the first thing about breaching. I breached a shit-ton when I was in Iraq, and we used the Masterkey 870 setup. I really wish we would have had these when I was there. It is probably the best idea that has came in breaching since the shotgun. So, if you retards want to trash talk something, make sure you know what you are talking about before you do.

2Will prolly pass on this one….

0Just curious if any of the people making comments on this gun have ever had to make entry into a building. Just from watching the video I can see how making this “chainsaw” handle mod to any shotgun would be beneficial in a mout environment.

0Well i have never breached a door to enter a building, but i have shot a door from a door frame with a stock 870 express with a 22″ barrel and it didnt feel awkward to me. I really dont see any practicality in this. Breach the door then run in there like rambo hip firing?

0I have a very hard time believing that would be useful for door breaching. You angle a breaching shotgun DOWN and to the side, so that bits of wood, metal, etc., go down and to the side. From the shoulder, that works fine. Breaching a door from the hip means much higher risk of collateral damage, especially since any ricocheting pieces of metal from the door will be flying around at crotch-level, instead of down into the floor.
On the other hand, someone needs to see if this crazy thing WOULD be considered a foregrip “at an angle to the bore” by the ATF. It’s angled in one axis, but not the usual one. How much geometry do their tech department agents know? A pistol with something like that on the accessory rail would be a hilarious abomination.

0I like. Don’t mine getting the mod for it if the price point is reasonable.

0I’m confused – what’s it for? what do you do with it? how is it practical? why does looking at it hurt my brain?
Someone please tell me!

0I love Mossberg shotguns, but goodness gracious, that thing is dumb. I can see VERY limited use for people who cannot stand hold a weapon well (wheelchair bound?) but other than that… Fudds.

On topic: seems like it’d be a pretty easy mod to make to any shotgun, particularly if it has a picatinny rail on the grip, like the new Kel-Tec shotgun.

0hahahahahahaha….
Would this even have any real use? It looks like it would be way too clumsy for anything other than showing off…

0Jake,
It makes the weapon handling easier for non-shouldered firing, door breaching, etc. It also looks cool evidently. I assume most users will be military/le, though mall ninjas will buy their fair share too.

0And something new for the WTF??? category. it’s Engineering trumping practicality.

0I am very skeptical about the usefulness of this. If it was like a combination shotgun/battering ram/saws-all I could see it as a niche all purpose breaching tool maybe?

1@ Smith,
Based on your comment I’m going to guess that you don’t know what a fatal funnel is? And that you don’t have any formal training when it comes to MOUT (military operations urban terrain). In a scenario where you are the man holding the shotgun for the purpose of breaching a locked door, you would not be the first man in the room “like rambo hip firing”. Furthermore the shotgun would be your secondary weapon in any mout environment unless we were talking about the AA12.
