The all new AUSLOF 12ga shotgun!

Looks interesting

I had mine out at the range today, 20” version. Neat design, but I had issues with the spent case not ejecting fast enough, and the new round coming in and blocking the ejection. If not paying attention, the spent round was in the chamber and “click”. I’d say over 50% of the time this happened. So I’d manually have to remove the spent round. Which was slower than just using a break action. Was cool and fun when it worked as it should.

Hopefully it breaks itself out of that!

Was it maybe the shells sticking in the chamber? Hopefully it works it out or maybe give the chamber a good scrub and light oil to help it out for the first while?

Mine was supposed to come Friday but Canada Post delayed it until Tuesday so I'll know more when I get to play hands on haha

Would this be safer and easier to operate with one hand on a motorcycle than the 1887?

We’ll see, it always ejected the shell when there wasn’t another one to load.

Got mine today. It works out of the box (but a bit dirty) with dummies, at least.
The black finish will get marked pretty easily by the brass of ejecting shells, though only superficially.

Sounds like its faithful to the original design lol.

Yeah same, just came today finally. People were saying it doesn't work with minishells but I think a spacer could be 3d printed in the shell loader so it can but I'll have to figure that out after I've shot this. Might not be worth trying but fun gun to play with

Biggest advantage over pump is it's ability to easily fold in half for easy stowage/transport. Also, larger mag capacity then pump for the same given length

So now we have a tube-fed single-shot break-action shotgun ?!?!






I don't know which is more surprising
- The guy in the 1920s that came up with the design
- That someone in 2023 decided to mass produce it!
