ABSTRACT:
A sporting shotgun from which the stock and forearm have been removed is partially encapsulated within a clamshell housing assembly which includes a stock and pistol grip and which substantially alters the appearance of the shotgun. Projections within the housing assembly block a safety member on the gun in an inoperative position. A recoil beam attached to the receiver of the shotgun and contained with the butt end of the stock functions as a recoil absorber and also cooperates with a cup-shaped butt plate to retain the butt end portion of the housing in assembly. The trigger of the shotgun is encapsulated within the stock and connected by a trigger connecting assembly to an auxiliary trigger associated with the pistol grip.
