Adler Shotguns scare the Australian 'government':
The Guardian wrote:By way of contrast, pump-action shotguns are listed as “category C” firearms. It is more difficult for gun owners to obtain these types of firearms, and there are greater restrictions on their use. Some firearms in this category are entirely restricted outside of specific military purposes.

Despite their relatively low categorisation, lever-action shotguns can still fire extremely rapidly, which has been a issue of concern. Here’s one illustration from Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2. In this (over-the-top) footage, Schwarzenegger is firing a Marushin M1887 lever-action shotgun.

I guess my semi-auto Saiga-12 would not be welcome there either.... :lol:

P.S. I love how the government lackeys use a Terminator movie clip to authoritatively show how lever action shotguns work. Reminds my of the U.S. legislator's use of James Bond footage to prove airplanes rip apart from a single bullet hole.

I HAD to research that - Andrew Burgess Folding Shotgun! Very, very cool.

Now for the stockless lever shotgun - nope. You would have to hold the forestock to cock it. Unless you maintain a superman grip, it is likely that in the heat of a gun battle or the excitement of the hunt your cocking action could cant the barrel up to your head. Pass on that one, for sure.

That chopped Adler scattergun reminds me of the Polish handgun.

The trigger guard and the pistol grip, actually slide backwards to work the action. Here is are pictures of another Burgess wrist/slide action shotgun. This one isn't a folder like the first, but it works the same...
