ABSTRACT:
A shotshell cartridge adapter is disclosed that enables safe firing of subcaliber rim-fire shot cartridges in conventional shotguns. In the preferred embodiment, the invention comprises an outer hull shaped like a standard shotgun shell; an adapter tube fixed within the hull; and a cylindrical firing pin mechanism removably housed within the lower end of the tube. This firing pin mechanism has a recessed piston-shaped firing pin with a chisel-pointed protrusion that strikes a shot cartridge loaded in the adapter.
