ABSTRACT:
A shot-gun with gas take-off has a fore end stock which is movable longitudinally of the barrel and lockable selectively in each of two positions: in one position gases from the discharge of a cartridge in the gun bleed from the barrel into the chamber of a piston/cylinder unit to drive the piston to operate an arming rod of the shot gun automatically. In the other position, a valve member prevents the discharge gases from entering the cylinder chamber, these gases being vented to the external environment: the stock is rigidly locked to the piston for manual operation of the arming rod by "pump" action on the stock in the latter position.
