well the gun is rather. thick i should say. so no manufacturer would want to pump out a gun with that much plastic it would need. then on top of that a custom magazine then what shells too ? tanaka or maruzen, if maruzen you then need to have a tank stored in that m16 looking stock or perhaps in the grip. then you gotta wonder overall weight. that and if its maruzen you include the blowback, the tanaka you don't.

if its any interest im having a saiga-12 made. the techs already say how much of a phony pony its gonna be. i have my idea's they have theirs and we are both right on what to do to make it happen. i mentioned this on another site. really your best shot at getting some kind of magazine shotgun that isn't a springer is paying for a tech or DIY get a drum mag with tanaka shotgun shells and do your best to make a DAO-12.

I've been interesting in a CQB-length MPS AA12 for years now, but the biggest issues are the practical ones.

If they make it GBB, you essentially have a very large pistol. However, it's probably closest to a realistic AA12, especially if you could work it to fire multiple rounds.

If they make it an AEG, then there's no point. Too bulky. Sure, it looks cool, but whats the point?

If they make it shell ejection, can you imagine the number of shells you could go through? And chasing all those shells?

Maybe you could base it off the TM system, but those have no provision for automatic capabilities.

If someone could do it right, I'd be interested. Until then...

A semi or automatic shotgun could be feasible if it utilized a dual gas system like the Hudson M14 a while back.

Imagine the Marushin shotgun style gas system coupled with a semi auto mechanism.
You pull the trigger, it simultaneously fires the BB chamber and cycles the action.
It wouldn't be all that hard. The only part besides the hammer that gets racked on the Marushin system is a single lever to load the BBs into the chamber.

The problem is feeding such a beast with all that gas.
