ABSTRACT:
A gas-power system for an autoloading shotgun in which a pair of gas cylinders are mounted on opposite sides of and between the barrel and the magazine tube. An inertial weight is slidably mounted on the magazine for engagement by the pistons, which are positively retained within their cylinders for limited movement when a shell is discharged. The inertial weight is connected to the bolt-mechanism by a pair of action bars.
