How could you miss this one? It's a heavily modified STRIKER 12.

Sorry but you are completely wrong there. It was origionally known as the Armsel Striker, latter it was improved into the Protecta model. The name DAO-12 comes from Battlefield 2 and now you have alot of idiots calling it that.
An interesting note: Whereas Angela Dodson's ([[Rachel Weisz]]) S&W 6906 pistol fires a huge amount of shots without reloading, Constantine's shotgun has a ammo deficitDespite each drum holding twelve rounds, Constantine only fires '''eight shots''' before he has to reload, and after reloading the second drum, he runs out of ammo in '''five shots'''.  Either an editing mistake, or he has really bad primers....

John Constantine's Holy Shotgun

The Holy Shotgun is seen as a firearm constructed out of Holy Relics, firing gold rifled slugs encased in engraved 12 gauge sized shells. Though based heavily on the Armsel Striker 12/SWD StreetSweeper shotgun, it is not built on either one. The receiver is radically different in size and shape (quite a bit smaller and smoother on Constantine's gun). Also the ornately engraved drum magazines are shown as quick detachable and reloads (much like the drum magazine of a PPsH-41) but it 'spins' like the cylinder of a Single Action Army Revolver. None of the real world weapons have this capability, so it is a completely built prop weapon, using SOME real world parts, but for the most part is fictional.
