DOUBLE-BARREL PUMP SHOTGUNS

摘要

An improved shotgun design that includes at least two barrels, a trigger assembly that allows for individual simultaneous firing of each barrel, a single magazine with parallel ammunition wells that each feed one barrel, and a single slide mechanism that actuates the loading/unloading mechanism and resets the firing mechanism for discharge of subsequent rounds.

1. A shotgun, comprising:
a plurality of barrels; a plurality of bolts, where
each one of said bolts is associated with one of said plurality of barrels; andeach one of said bolts possesses a firing mechanism; a slide that is operably connected to said plurality of bolts so as to enable cycling of all of said plurality of bolts simultaneously; a magazine comprising a plurality of ammunition wells, where
each one of said plurality of ammunition wells is associated with one of said plurality of barrels; andeach one of said plurality of ammunition wells is positioned so as to allow feeding of ammunition inserted therein into its associated barrel by the bolt associated with the associated barrel; and a plurality of triggers configured so that
each one of said triggers is associated with one of said plurality of bolts; andeach one of said triggers can be independently actuated so as to release the firing pin of its associated bolt.
