Sorry if this has been asked...I did search. But I just heard about this, and while I'm always thrilled when new firearms stuff comes out.....thIs kind of made me go... I get the whole more ammo is a good thing, but this just seems to be goofy way to go about extending ammo cap on a shotgun.

Kind of an interesting idea, but that's going to be waaaaay too front heavy to be practical. I like the idea.....and if it could be incorporated into the forearm area I'd love it. But that would probably require redesigning most semi auto shotguns [and no pump guns] |

Looks like yet another thing I don't need, or want. Seriously, if someone has a problem with shotgun capacity they can try some training. It's not too hard to breach load or top off the tube if you have a few seconds. And you don't have a 3 lb weight hanging off the end of your muzzle.

Poor excuse for a drum fed shotgun. (looks like SOC already has the point covered  )
Shotguns are supposed to be light, compact (relatively) firearms with the ability to switch your payload quickly. The Xrail looks to have a RETARDED reload time, makes the gun heavy and cumbersome, and makes it big and unwieldy. Unless you decide to ditch the gun once you run out of ammo, the idea seems pointless. |
