I have combined 2 different tpyes of breech loaders. The pump pushes the shell to the barrel, while the bolt locks the pump onto the chamber. After the shot is fired, pull back the bolt and the shell will fall out of the ejection port.

The 2" PVC is attached to the barrel and slides over the bolt. The magazine can be vertical but, I did not want the weight to cause it to rotate in my hand and this is more shotgun authentic.

Nifty, is it a combustion or pneumatic?

probably combustion. You may need a spring to push the cartrige into the barrel. Also how will you support the barrel?

I've already realized that this idea isn't very useful, I'm declaring this locked by author.

or place the ammo on top of eachtother, that saves a spring. I mean like a normal magazine, like one of an M16. Bullets on top of eachother, and pushed in the barrel with a spring. I like the concept again.
