10 Most Powerful Shotguns of ALL TIME

when it comes to sheer power few weapons can overcome the incredible punch of a shotgun designed to fire outstanding lethal force with the greatest spread possible these guns range from comically large to compact an efficient in any case you can't deny the bigger is better in this category shotguns are some of the most recognizable and iconic weapons in the world we see them in movies and on TV shows and we willed them in video games but out of all the incredible models which are the most remarkable we have compiled a list of the 10 biggest most powerful and most unique shotguns in existence all of these weapons boast incredible range hitting force and mind-boggling potential in the field stay tuned to find out what other unique advantages they have to offer [Music] eh-eh 12 the Atchison assault shotgun or a a 12 was one of the first fully automatic assault shotguns to be designed that means not having to reload after each round it'll keep on unleashing power for an entire clip originally developed by Maxwell Atchison in 1972 the aa12 was in fact the first gun which was designed to be a combat shotgun as opposed to being adapted for that purpose the patent was sold to Military Police Systems Incorporated and was the basis for a number of weapons which came later including the usas-12 combat shotgun those looking to own one however may be disappointed not only does it come with a hefty $2,200 were over price tag with the patent owners sell only to military and police forces there are a few models which predate this patent sale but they're in the hands of private collectors who are probably not going to let such rare pieces go cheaply you TAS uts-15 the you TAS uts-15 is not one of the most well known entries on this list and yet video game lovers may get the feeling that it's somehow familiar certainly the chunky design is reminiscent of mini Hollywood and video game designs but it's actually a fairly recent addition to the market the process of its design began with Smith and Wesson in 2006 but after a few setbacks they pulled out leaving turkish company you toss to soldier on alone the result has been spectacular thanks to its incredible hitting force the nra has named the uts-15 gun of the year more than once what really makes this model stand out however is the unique safety feature which effectively enables a person to thief-proof their gun you see as well as being able to put the safety on owners of the uts-15 can also use a special tool to stick the safety into place the gun then becomes inert and unusable to anyone but the owner this is a huge development for gun owners across the world Franchi spas-12 the spas-12 shotgun was produced by Italian company Friday is one of the most iconic shotguns in the world been featured in movies videogames and used in TV shows when people who have little knowledge of guns are asked to picture or draw a shotgun the spas-12 is probably what they are thinking of thanks to its multi shot potential users can continue mowing down their targets without pause to reload from the beginning the spas-12 was designed as a military shotgun its design was very much aimed at the military user however after 1990 Franchi renamed it the sporting purpose automatic shotgun so that it could be allowed into the USA as a limited magazine fix stock model up until 1994 when in the wake of the federal assault weapons ban it became illegal and imports were stopped production of this iconic gun ended in 2000 when franchise again to focus on the new sponsor tomaten vepr 12 the Vepr 12 may look like an assault rifle in fact it was modeled after the classic Calais anakov rifle but it is in fact a multi-purpose semi-automatic shotgun that means you get all the power of a shotgun with all the convenience of an assault rifle sometimes known as the Russian shotgun this model is produced by molot Peruzzi specifically for the UK market as such it has a fixed buttstock automatic last round bulb holder and a barrel length of 26 and a half inches in order to meet the requirements of local law however this model is also very popular amongst IPSC competition shooters a target audience for the company and is still used by Russian military and law enforcement as well rather like its close relative the Saiga 12 the Vepr 12 is perfect for clay shooting as it has the appropriate optic synergy shotgun produced by browning one of the most iconic brands on the market the synergies over an under shotgun has a real pedigree designed to be the most technologically advanced shotgun of its kind the synergy has certainly lived up to its purpose it is quieter more accurate and has less belt recoil than any rival over-and-under shotgun that's a bold claim as they date back to the 20th and in furthermore benefits from the Browning name the synergy is primarily aimed at those who will be play shooting but those in the know have stated that the features at boast of are also suitable for use in the field it is definitely one of the most powerful in this lineup despite its regular need to reload SRM arms model 1216 this is one shotgun you shouldn't mess around with featuring an interesting rotary magazine design SRM arms model 1216 shotgun is undeniably cool and unique this is a semiautomatic shotgun which holds a maximum of 17 rounds which is more than enough for any users needs designed for home defense and law enforcement purposes it also has many safety features however the most unique and interesting feature is that removable rotary magazine which allows the user to simply turn the magazine in order to make an additional four rounds available the polymer material fused for the butt and magazine also make this a lighter shotgun that you would expect given the immense power that it boasts definitely one of the most unique guns on this list kel-tec KSG the kel-tec KSG is a unique version of the classic pump shotgun design which has been labeled by some as the most dangerous shotgun in the world why well aside from the power of that most every shotgun has the kel-tec KSG also has one unique string it doesn't suffer from the limited magazine capacity that the average pump-action shotgun has KSG models can hold between 25 and 41 Johnson's ammunition internally how they manage to do this is quite remarkable first they make use of two chambers rather than one immediately doubling capacity and second they have linked in the barrel other than this the KSP works in much the same way as any other pump action shotgun but has a longer stock and a specialized grip which make the recoil more manageable hunt gun if there is a shotgun more extreme than the plunge gun we're not sure what it is used in the 19th and early 20th centuries by hunters seeking ducked and waterfowl this gun is to put it mildly large indeed the guns were eventually banned because they caused the populations of waterfowl and duck to become dangerously depleted you see hunting is a loose term for what one does with a punt gun it's so large in fact that it was generally mounted onto a small boat so that the recoil didn't knock the user off his feet furthermore a single shot could kill up to 50 Birds this is because of the bore diameter of the gun which varied but could be up to two inches one could say it's less of a shotgun and more of a cannon so we won't be able to get your hands on one of these today but many a museum in North America features them so why not pay a visit big Ernie well big Ernie isn't a shotgun but as the world's largest firing rifle it deserves its place on this list at 35 feet long the gun weighs 4,000 pounds and as you can imagine as one hell of a kick Ernie can be found at the diapers tourist trap and Museum and Eastman Michigan and is actually a Winchester rifle not a shotgun of course unlike most of the guns on this list there is only one big Ernie so if you want a piece of him you'll need to pack your bags and hoof it to Michigan the smallest shotgun in the world 2012 movie killing them softly had much to interest the average Hollywood fan business but for those with a love for firearms there was one scene in particular which would really have hiked their interest the laughably tiny sawed-off shotgun which was featured raised many questions mainly as to whether and how it would perform believe it or not as long as you filed the correct paperwork that gun would be legal but it's definitely not the smartest designs testing has shown that there would be a spread of two feet at a four foot distance which is not too bad but the kickback on such a gun would be the main problem after all people often break their own noses or wrist when using this shotgun so all in all it's a unique design that should probably stay on the silver screen if you know what's good for you as you can see each of these tin weapons are incredibly powerful and unique in their own ways if you want more content like this be
