Are you sure? If experience with Snub-nosed revolvers teaches anything it's that shortening the barrel increases felt recoil.

Additional Variants
With two barrels stacked on top of one another the O/U proved to be more accurate and effective at shooting airborne clay targets and bird hunting than a side-by-side.
Note: Most 8 gauge shotguns were NOT punt guns. 8 gauge punt guns were rare, and in generally had a MUCH LONGER chamber than the standard 8 gauge. I don't know why hunting regulations drew the line of 'too big' between 8 gauge and 10 gauge, but it is wrong to instantly call an 8 gauge a 'punt gun'
Unless someone objects in the near future, I will be editing out 'punt gun'
Firing Sawn-off Double Barreled Shotguns One Handed
Is it possible in real life to fire a sawn-off double barreled shotgun one handed effectively and with out hurting ones-self? - Mr. Wolf

Over Under Shotgun in Call of Duty: World at War
I don't ever remember an over-under shotgun being in this game. A side-by-side, yes, but no O/U. Someone may have gotten confused with Black Ops. Does anybody ever see an O/U shotgun in this game?
I'm calling confusion as well. No over-under shotty in World At War --HashiriyaR32 15:32, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Firing both barrels of a Double Barreled Shotgun
Would firing both barrels at the same time really destroy a double barreled shotgun like some people said on this site? I would very much appreciate an answer from someone who actually knows what their talking about and not just someone assuming, thank you.
I've fired both barrels at one on numerous occasions whilst clay pigeon shooting and from berettas to webleys it has never once damaged anything but my aim --Captain Snikt 08:26, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
Depends on the qualitity of said shotgun and maybe the age. And the ammunition used is, of course, of importance, too.
I think that there are some shotguns out there were doubling is not a wise option - but so long I haven't encountered any.
(Maybe because I rarely handle american made shotguns ;) ) - tiredWeasel
- So would firing two shots of 2-3/4 shells with 00 Buck-shot at the same time do much to a good SBS or O/U? It probably would hurt, lol, except to someone who shoots shotguns a lot. Someone keeps posting on the Half-Life 1 & 2 pages (in the SPAS-12 section) [[1]] [[2]] that, and I qoute "it has the unrealistic ability to fire two shells at once (alternative fire) which would destroy any double barreled shotgun if attempted from the shock of doing so and would render the weapon useless". I guess it's a rumor like the one about firing sawn-off shotguns and magnum handguns one-handed will break your wrist. :/
- Yeah, that's bullshit. What's going to be destroyed? The barrels? Each barrel takes the shock of firing one round, so that guy is basically claiming it's also impossible to fire one barrel of a shotgun. The stock? What, does he have a special shotgun with a stock made of expanded polystyrene? Vangelis 18:33, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
There are more parts then barrel and stock ^^ For example if parts of the locking mechanism are not tightly fitted and the shotgun is of (very) poor quality and well used there might be a small possibility that you destroy the locking mechanism when doubling the gun. I'm not talking about "blowing up". It IS possible - but very, veeeeery unlikely. Very unlikely. - tiredWeasel
- Yeah, I know that, it was just for purposes of making a point. You can build any gun badly; you'll find plenty of images lurking around of handguns that have gone kaboom for various reasons, but that doesn't mean it's impossible to shoot a handgun. Yeah, in a badly made gun you might damage the locking mechanism or the pivot, but that's hardly the same as saying it's impossible to shoot both barrels of any double-barrel without physically destroying it.

Thanks guys. :)
