Charles Daly Field Hunter Semiautomatic
Notes:
Manufactured for Charles Daly by Fabarm of Italy, the Field Hunter is a
gas-operated semiautomatic shotgun with metal parts made mostly of Ergal-55
aluminum. This metal is strong yet
light, making the weapon lightweight yet able to handle magnum shells.
The barrel is of chrome-molybdenum steel, strong enough for steel shot,
and equipped with MC-3 interchangeable chokes (a set of three different chokes).
Furthermore, the barrel may be removed and replaced with a 24-inch rifled
barrel for use with slugs. The
barrels are equipped with a ventilated sighting rib.
The stock and fore-end are made from impact-resistant plastic, either
black or in a camouflage pattern (with Field Hunter Camo versions not having a
30-inch barrel option), and having a pistol grip wrist and rubber recoil pad on
the butt.

Charles Daly Field Slug Semiautomatic
Notes: Though
designed specifically for firing shotgun slugs, the short barrel of this shotgun
is a smoothbore and is suitable for firing shot shells.
The Field Slug has leaf-type folding rear sights and a ramp front sight,
with no sighting rib. The furniture
of the gun is made from impact-resistant plastic with a pistol grip wrist (black
in color); the receiver is of Ergal-55 aluminum, and the barrel of
chrome-molybdenum steel. The
metalwork may be finished in matte black or nickel-plated.

Charles Daly Maxi-Mag
Notes: This
semiautomatic shotgun is called the Maxi-Mag due to its chambering, which is
for 12 gauge 3.5 shells. (The
Maxi-Mag is also capable of chambering and firing 2.75 and 3 shells.)
It is designed primarily for turkey hunting, though other hunting is
certainly possible. The barrel is
relatively short compared to other fowling shotguns, and the shotgun is fairly
light and easy to tote around despite the chambering.
This is possible due to the construction; stocks are made from synthetic
material (overprinted with Realtree Hardwoods HD or Advantage Timber HD
camouflage patterns), and many of the other structural parts are made from light
steel. The sights are HiViz/TriViz
combination Turkey/Deer sights. The
stock is supplied with a thick recoil pad on the butt.
The weapon is not drilled and tapped for a scope as delivered, the top of
the shotgun allows plenty of room to do so if this is desired.

Charles Daly Superior Sport Semiautomatic
Notes: This is a
12 gauge semiautomatic shotgun with interchangeable barrels; one has compensator
ports near the muzzle, and one does not.
The barrel also has MC-3 interchangeable chokes, and a sighting rib with
a fluorescent fiberoptic front sight bead.
The metalwork is of chrome-molybdenum steel.
The stock is of select Turkish walnut, with a pistol grip wrist.
A variant of this shotgun is the Superior Trap; this shotgun has long
barrels with compensators, and a Monte Carlo stock.
It is otherwise the same as the Superior Sport.

Childers
Notes: The
Childers Shotgun was the result of experiments by Special Operations Warfare
Center at China Lake to develop a weapon for use by SEAL teams in Vietnam.
The Childers was an early example of a semiautomatic box magazine-fed
shotgun. The magazine feed was from
the top. (There were provisions for
belt feeding, but the requisite adaptors were apparently never produced).
The weapon was a strange blow-forward-type weapon, gas operated with a
fixed bolt and a moving barrel to cycle the weapon and feed the chamber.
A variety of special ammunition types were planned, including flares,
tear gas, and HE rounds, but none were ever actually produced; other types of
special ammunition already existing can be fired from the Childers.
Limited quantities were tested by SEALs in Vietnam, but though they liked
the firepower, they did not appreciate the bulk and awkwardness of the weapon
(especially the top-mounted magazine).
It is presented here as an interesting what-if.

Destructive Devices DDI-12
Notes:
Essentially a US-Made Russian Saiga shotgun, the DDI-12 replaces much of the
Saigas furniture with Magpul furniture, but generally retains the Saigas
design. There are also some
modifications, such as the charging handle on the left side of the receiver, an
AR-type selector lever, an AR Mil-Spec buffer tube, and a fiberoptic front sight
and adjustable peep rear sight. The
bolt locks open upon empty. The rear sight is mounted on the receiver cover
instead of being forward like on the standard Saiga.
The 18,5-inch barrel is chrome-lined, and is not in its standard form
tipped with any muzzle device; however, there is a cap which protects threads,
allowing the mounting of brakes, flash suppressors, choke types, or other such
muzzle attachments. The gas
regulator has four positions, allowing reliable firing in different conditions
of dirt and fouling or non-standard loads being fired.
The sling swivels allow the DDI-12 to use standard or tactical slings.
The stock may be a standard polymer AK-type stock, or an M4-type
collapsible stock, the handguard is an MOE AK setup, and the pistol grip is a
Magpul MOE grip which is ergonomic, rubberized, and has a compartment for
batteries or other such small items.
The DDI-12 comes with an AK-type lift-side-mounted optics mount.
The DDI-12 can
use standard Saiga magazines in addition to those made by DDI and aftermarket
polymer, alloy, aluminum, and steel magazines, though some aftermarket magazines
have been reported to require minor fitting or modification to fit.
(The manufacturer supplies two 5-round magazines.) One advantage of the
DDI-12 is that the real-world price is much less than competing designs.
Some shooters
have had problems with cracking and breaking bolts, but this does appear to be a
rare issue and DDI is quite willing to replace defective bolts and bolt
carriers.

Harrington & Richardson Excell Auto 5
Notes: The
Excell Auto 5 is a semiautomatic recoil-operated shotgun which is designed for
hunting (primarily bird hunting).
There are several models, but almost all have a barrel topped by a ventilated
sighting rib; this rib comes with bead or fiberoptic sights (depending on the
model), and the weapon is fairly lightweight.
All have a thick rubber recoil pad.
The Excell Auto 5 Synthetic has a 28-inch barrel with four
interchangeable chokes (Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and
Full) and a synthetic stock and fore-end in black.
It has bead sights. The
Excell Auto 5 Walnut is virtually identical except for the walnut stock and
fore-end, and slightly differing weight and cost (in game terms).
The Excell Auto 5 Waterfowl is virtually identical to the Synthetic,
except for the camouflage finish to its stock and fore-end, and is identical to
the Synthetic for game purposes.
The Excell Auto 5 Turkey has a short 22-inch barrel, the same interchangeable
chokes, a synthetic camouflage stock and fore-end, and fiberoptic sights instead
of a sighting rib. The Excell Auto
5 Combo has a 28-inch shotgun barrel, and an exchange rifled barrel 24 inches
long. The shotgun barrel has a
sighting rib with a bead front sight; the rifled barrel has fiberoptic sights
and no sighting rib. The stock is
black synthetic, and when equipped with the shotgun barrel, it is identical to
the Synthetic for game purposes.

High Standard Supermatic
Notes: The
Supermatic is a shotgun designed at the time to be light in weight and
inexpensive IRL. It is more
commonly known by the numerous companies through which it was sold, such as
Sears and JC Higgins. The Supermatic was cheap and it showed -- dirt is the bane
of its existence and the metal parts are made of a rare steel alloy which is not
used often largely because it is prone to breakage.
It has not been made for 30 years, and parts are difficult to find, and
often have to be fabricated from scratch (where they do not necessarily mix
favorably with the parts already on the gun). Loading and unloading could be
problematic, with the magazine tube being difficult to load the last round.
Magazine capacity is also not high. However, the Supermatic is not junk;
it just takes someone with solid gunsmithing skills.
When clean, it shoots very well and accurate. The action is gas-operated
semiautomatic; it is also hammerless.
The Supermatic
Field is, as might be guessed from
the name, designed for hunting and fowling, and a bit long for home defense. It
is rather light for its size and recoil can be punishing. In 12 Gauge, the
barrels may be 26 inches with improved cylinder choke; 28 inches with either
Modified or Full choke; or 30 inches with Full choke.
In 20 gauge, barrels are limited to 26 or 28 inches. External metalwork
is blued and the stock is plain walnut with a semi-pistol grip. The grip is
checkered, while the fore-end has a gripping groove.
The butt has a hard rubber plate which is textured for grip. The
Supermatic Special is the same as the Field, but has an adjustable choke on the
muzzle and a 27-inch barrel.
The Supermatic
Deluxe Rib similar to the Field, but is more deluxe, and with a ventilated
sighting rib. Only 28-inch barrel versions were made, and for game purposes it
is identical to the Field. The Supermatic Trap has only a 30-inch barrel and
comes in 12 Gauge magnum only. The Supermatic Trophy differs only in small ways
to the Special, and is the same for game purposes; it is the Special for game
purposes. The Supermatic Skeet is
similar to the Field, but limited to a 26-inch barrel with a Skeet choke,
It has a ventilated sighting rib.
It is comes with a 36-inch barrel with a Full choke in 12 gauge only. The
Supermatic Duck is the only member of the series with a recoil pad on the butt,
and is the only model which has a version that fires 12 gauge magnum shells. It
was made only with a 30-inch barrel with a Full choke. The Supermatic Duck Rib
is the same as the Duck, but with a ventilated sighting rib; for game purposes
it is identical to the Duck. The
Trap is also identical to the Duck for game purposes,'
The Shadow is
sort of a deluxe variant, furbished in flat black with dark wood. It has a
fore-end ribbed like a pump-action shotgun.
Chambering may be regular gauge or magnum gauge. It's butt has a recoil
pad.

High Standard M-10A/M-10B
Notes:
The M-10A and M-10B are the Flite King shotguns turned into bullpup
designs. The Flite King has had its
stock removed and the action encased in a high-impact plastic shell.
The shell is designed to allow the weapon to be easily fired one-handed
or two-handed, and it is a short, handy weapon.
A big minus is the small magazine; it is a tubular underbarrel magazine
holding only 4 rounds. Another
minus is that the M-10 can be rather unreliable, especially when firing
non-magnum rounds. The difference
between the M-10A and M-10B are that the M-10A has an integral carrying handle,
while the M-10B has a folding carrying handle.
There are a few police departments using the M-10, but most are curiosity
items in the hands of collectors.

High Standard M-60
Notes: Also
known as the HS-60 and High Standard Riot Gun, the Model 60 was designed by
Bob Hillberg shortly after World War 2 for military, police, and home defense
use. (The Model 60 was actually
first sold in 1954 by Sears, and was known as the JC Higgins Model 60 for about
the first year.) Bob Hillberg was
one of the first firearms designers to make gas operation in a shotgun work
properly, and the Model 60 was one of his first commercial designs.
The Model 60 was
based on the pump-action Model 20, but of course heavily-modified internally for
use with the semiautomatic gas operation system.
However, the stock, barrel, bolt, and trigger mechanism are identical to
that of the Model 20, and the receiver virtually identical.
The gas operation caused less felt recoil, at a time when most
semiautomatic shotguns were recoil-operated and had a lot of kick.
The Model 60 had
virtually no sales to the military (despite the fact that a version specifically
designed for the military was developed), and most sales went to police
departments and civilians.
Metalwork was of steel, with a walnut buttstock and fore-end.
The standard barrel is 18 inches, but many have turned up with 18.5
inches. The origin of these
versions is unknown (the Model 60 was never built by High Standard with an
18.5-inch barrel), but it is believed that the slight barrel extension may have
been made by local gunsmiths to satisfy certain local regulations in California
for civilian shotguns at the time.
Many are also found with their tubular magazines plugged at 4 rounds (or less),
the plug is removable by anyone with Gunsmithing skill; the task is Difficult.

Ithaca Mag-10
Notes: The
Mag-10 was built from the early 1970s to the mid-1980s. The Mag-10 was designed
for law enforcement, to provide antivehicular stopping power and to put a
definite hurt on criminals.
However, it has seen large use by criminals against police; for example, it is
good for shooting a hole in a door to kill police who are outside.
It is a gas-operated weapon, which can digest most 10-gauge super magnum
loads and types. It is also a heavy shotgun, and the huge ammunition means a
small magazine. The stock is simple
walnut, with shallow semi-pistol grip and checkering on that and the fore-end.
The butt has a recoil pad. Metal finish is deep blued. The barrel is 32 inches.
The Mag-10 Deluxe has better quality wood and finish, the Mag-10 Deluxe even
more so. The Roadblocker has a
21-inch barrel, a vapor-blasted finish on the metalwork, and a plain stock.

Kalashnikov USA Komrad
Notes: Based
upon the Saiga shotgun, the Komrad was one of the first new firearms produced by
Kalashnikov Concerns new operation in the US, and is designed and built in the
US, with little sales so far being made outside of the US.
Though technically (by US law) a pistol, the Komrad is in effect a
short-barreled shotgun.
The barrel of
the Komrad is a short 12.5 inches, and the stock is a pistol brace.
The muzzle is threaded inside and out for use with muzzle brakes or a
variety of choke tubes. (As with most such pistols, the brace can easily be
replaced with a stock, and can actually be used as a somewhat uncomfortable
stock.) The brace is side-folding.
As a Saiga clone, the Komrad uses a modified AKM gas piston system, but on the
Komrad the gas system is also adjustable to allow for different loads and
ammunition types to be fired without a hiccup. (Kalashnikov USA does say that
the best ammunition for the Komrad are types that produce about 410 meters per
second of velocity.) Most of the
furniture is of polymer, and the handguards have a barrel-length Picatinny Rail
under the handguard, and a trio of one-third-length rails at the front of the
handguard on the top and sides. The
Komrad is equipped with a pistol grip and a fore-end grip.
Sights consist of a simple front bead and rear notch.
The standard magazine for the Komrad is a polymer 5-round magazine, but
the Komrad may also use Saiga 10-round magazines.

Legion USA Vepr 12
Notes: Like the
Fime Group/Molot Vepr shotgun, the Legion Vepr 12 series has a lot of
similarities with the Russian Vepr 12, but also has a lot of differences.
Most prominent among these differences are the stocks and the polymer
furniture. Legions shotguns are
given Legion Tuning, a sort of hand-fitting.
The base Vepr 12
uses polymer Zenitico B-20U handguards and an ergonomic polymer pistol grip.
The top of the receiver has a MIL-STD-1913 rail, behind the rear sight.
In front of the sight on the handguard is also another stretch of rail,
and on the bottom on the handguard is another length of rail.
On each side of the handguard at the front is a short MIL-STD-1913 rail.
The 19-inch barrel has a chromed bore and is tipped with a beefy GK-02
muzzle brake which is part of the choke and is designed for shotguns.
This muzzle brake is threaded and may be removed or replaced. The stock
folds and has a cheek pad and rubber butt, though it is strut-type metal
otherwise. Like all Vepr shotguns, the Legion Vepr 12 has a disconnector that
prevents the shotgun from being fired with the stock folded. The selector lever
is positioned to be actuated by the firing hand and is easy to move, yet locks
in each position. The trigger is an
ALG trigger which is lighter than the standard Russian Vepr trigger (3.5 pounds
pull weight) as well as being crisper. The magazine sold with the shotgun is a
5-round polymer magazine, though it can take any sort of Vepr shotgun magazine.
Finish is semigloss black.
The Lux Edition
is basically a finely-made version, with handguards and pistol grip of Grade I
oil-finished walnut, hand-fitting, and a non-folding stock which is otherwise
like that of the base Vepr 12. The 19-inch barrel is hand-fitted, cold-hammer
forged, and laser boresighted and is tipped by the same GL-02 muzzle brake as
the Vepr 12, also threaded. The ALG
trigger is used. It has the MIL-STD-1913 rail atop its receiver, but not on the
handguards.
The ALFA-S is an
SBR version of the Vepr 12 sort-of.
The barrel is 14 inches, but
the SUATEV muzzle brake adds four inches to the barrel, making the barrel length
legal. For this reason, the muzzle
brake is permanently-mounted. The
stock is the same as on the Vepr 12, and is folding.
Other equipment includes a red dot reflex sight mounted on the rear of
the receiver rail. The ALFA-S Fixed
Stock is identical to the standard ALFA-S, including the stock, but the stock is
non-folding. The VPO-205-SUT03SB is
essentially the same, but uses an M4-type collapsible stock instead of the
non-folding stock of the ALFA-S.
The VPO-205-LHRB
is also similar, though a little less so; the biggest difference are the round
13-inch handguards made of carbon fiber.
Because of this, the MIL-STD-1913 rail layout is different the receiver
cover has a rail, and in front of the front sight is also a length of rail that
is longer than the rest of the Vepr 12 series.
There are no rails underneath or on the sides of the handguard.
The stock is the same as on the Vepr 12, and is non-folding.
The
VPO-205-Red-ZS is, as the designation indicates, a special edition with red
handguards, red muzzle brake, and with special red 10-round magazines (though
other magazines will also fit this version).
The trigger is also red, and the tube supporting the sliding Hogue stock
is red. The barrel is 19 inches,
laser boresighted, and cold-hammer forged; it is tipped with a SUATEV muzzle
brake. The Red-ZS is sort of a
deluxe version of the Legion Vepr 12, with a better barrel that is also
hand-fitted. The top of the
receiver and the sides and bottom of the receiver have MIL-STD-1913 rails, but
the rail in front of the rear sight is absent.
The pistol grip is a Hogue rubber overmolded grip. What is not finished
in red Cerekote is finished in black.
