Shotgun! No, I'm not calling for the front seat.

This blows my mind (and probably cash in the future).

Anyone ever think something like the Wing Shot (pcp shotgun) was coming? This is the first I've ever seen something like this.

What are your thoughts?

I love air rifles but afraid may be missing the point regarding an air shotgun. For me, definitely will not be shooting any form of shotgun in the back yard and when I do hunt birds...need many shells (speaking honestly) and usually involves walking long distances from the truck (and air tank in this case).

This is maybe one application where the good old powder burner rules.

Perhaps they should bundle this with a 90in^3 air tank so you can at least get a few fills while out in the field.

I think the gun is great and definitely has it's place for hunting birds,rats and rabbits.I love my 1100 and see the Wing Shot being very similar but with much more reach. As far as the shot count goes it only fills to 3000psi that's perfect for filling with a buddy bottle.Too,I'm sure the gun may be able to take slugs as well that would make it capable of taking larger game.The gun is based off a Dragon Claw so I'm sure it has some good power and reliability.I would totally hunt with it!!!

I watched video on the shot gun... and it will take 50 cal. ammo
I like the idea ... kind of cool... 
Do I have a use for it ? No not really.
Will I own one.... no...
I will stay with my rifles...

I agree with billy's opinion!

 

[JohnnySconie]

Yeah.... I suppose real world practicality would win against the cool factor and dare I say novelty of it. I still think it's cool though lol!

Actually, as is the case with pcp air rifle shooting to get CHEAP practice for your more serious high power rifle hunting, a pcp shotgun could fit this same niche for wing shooting. Your quarry may be starlings, sparrows, collared doves or even bats but what entertainment for a fraction of the cost of shooting clays with trap loads. poop, for that matter, shooting close range trap or even skeet sounds pretty kick ass. A novelty...yes, but I would say no more so than the black powder shot guns I own. Hell, I'm on board to give it a try.

Bats..? Lol hahahaha

Now that you put it that way...... it does sound like fun to shoot skeet with it...

 

[ztirffritz]

I'm pretty sure bats are off limits. 

 

[arod2000]

How to tell if you qualify as "great" with your shotgun - a) do you hunt bats?

 

[JohnnySconie]

I personally don't hunt bats (they're all getting that nasal fungal death disease around here), but I do bunt hats. Never liked 'em, or what they do to my luxurious locks of hair lol!

Edit: just checked my YouTube feed and they released a video of it in action....

Cool gun, I love the idea of shooting clays with it. The gun must have some awsome power. I'm thinking around 1000fps.
