I know I have seen a similar gun before, but I cannot remember its name.

    The “similar” weapon you’re thinking of is called a Manville Gas Gun chambered for 12 bore (18.5mmx70mmR). You see two of these in the first matrix movie, which seems to be a scene growing in popularity.

    You’ll also notice that it was of 24 round capacity as well. As neat as this concept is, the cylinder and frame were made of aluminum, not steel, and were not built to withstand the recoil or concussive force of a shotgun shell.

    If thats a mosin nagant clip pouch in the bottom left corner of the pic, then the gun is really small.

    Makes me think of the Manville gas gun, but the bore looks kinda small for that.

    If anything, it looks like it has the same ejector setup as the Armsel Striker (or is that Protecta), with gas powering a piston that knocks out spent shells.

    Maybe you were thinking about the Manville Machine Projector/Hawk MM1 (as seen in Terminator 2?)

    It also bears a certain semblance to “Mouse”‘s custom electrically-driven shotguns from the first “Matrix” movie.
