Talk:12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
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?
- A 12 or 20 gauge is relatively controllable with one hand with only a little stout recoil, but if you went up to 10 or 8 gauge, it's more likely you're going to hurt your wrist or bruise your finger in the trigger guard from the recoil. - Gunmaster45
- Assuming the lever that opens the breach doesn't drive into the web of your hand. Worst case scenario: severed thumb.
- Ouch! Good thing 10 and 8 gauges are pretty rare now a days, well I should of mentioned 12 gauge do to it being the most common. Wow, I did not expect a sawn-off 12 gauge shotgun to be that easy to shoot one handed. So is shooting a sawn-off 12 GA shotgun with one hand similar to firing .44 Magnum revolver or of the like with one hand?
- It's at most just a little more stout than a .44 Magnum. - Gunmaster45

Are you sure? If experience with Snub-nosed revolvers teaches anything it's that shortening the barrel increases felt recoil. Given the recoil of a normal 12 gauge shotgun, I'd imagine a Sawn-off weapon would be a nightmare. -Anonymous
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.
Ive fired both barrells at one on numerous occasions whilst clay pidgeon shooting and from berettas to webleys it has never once damaged anything but my aim --Captain Snikt 08:26, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
