Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! http://shop.forgottenweapons.com
This is a commercial pump-action shotgun manufactured in France and proofed at the St Etienne proof house. I know basically nothing else of its provenance, including who designed it, who sold it (although I would assume Manufrance…) or when it was in production (assuming it did get into serial production). What I do know is that it has a quite unusual and very interesting operating mechanism, and I wanted to take my limited access with it to at least show you that!
Thanks to Ader of Paris for the chance to film this very cool piece of firearms history.

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
