Every Type of Shotgun In Detail!

Описание: Every Type of Shotgun Explained: From Terminator to John Wick
One trigger pull. Devastating power. For over 200 years, the shotgun has been cinema's ultimate statement weapon. From Arnold's flip-cocking Winchester 1887 in Terminator 2 to John Wick's tactical Benelli M4, from Mad Max's sawed-off double-barrel to the futuristic AA-12 in The Expendables—every shotgun design tells a different story.

In this comprehensive breakdown, we examine every major shotgun platform: single-shot, break-action, double-barrel, pump-action, semi-automatic, full-auto, bullpup, lever-action, magazine-fed, and hybrid designs. What makes them different? What are they made of? Why do filmmakers choose one over another? And what do they actually cost?

The Shotgun's Role in Cinema: When you hear that distinctive pump-action rack, your brain registers threat. When you see a break-action snap closed, you're watching precision engineering. When a double-barrel breaks open, you're experiencing Old West mythology. When John Wick deploys a Benelli M4 in the catacombs, you're witnessing modern tactical efficiency. Filmmakers don't choose shotguns randomly—each design communicates character, situation, and stakes.
From the $150 single-shot break-action to the $50,000 British game gun, from the $15,000+ AA-12 full-auto to innovative hybrids like the Benelli M3 and SRM 1216, every shotgun platform represents a different philosophy of close-quarters combat.
