Awesome looking "boomstick". Quite the kickback!!

As for the miniatures...very nice...what scale? Can you modify them, or do they all come the same?

Oh come on that's lame for a big gun. If you want to see some REAL kickback, then use your google-fu to find a video of the .577 T-Rex gun  lol

I still don't quite understand the public image if pump action rifles. They are slow, tiresome to operate and not suited for anything longer ranged than a back alley shootout.

But then again: It is a phallic instrument of deadly might, which you reload by gripping it's shaft and ...  :o

Come on, pump action guns aren't sexy, they are plain simple pornographic !!!

ACTUALLY, these are useful for more than just "your back alley fight".


i toted and used a WINCHESTER M1917 12-ga trenchgun -BY CHOICE- when i was in the RVN and beating the bush as a grunt. i preferred it to the REMINGTON M1917 12-ga trench gun and other GI shotguns (never saw an ATCHINSON when i could have used
 one). with the WINCHESTER, a bod could hold the trigger back and pump the slide  without the normal delay, and thus spray out either 8 big solid slugs, or  eight 9mm slugs per 00 round, or 24 NR 4 shot (6.35mm) slugs per 00 round. took me slightly longer to reload, but i could spray as many or more " bullets"  into an area in only slightly more time than an AK or an MATTY MATTEL could empty a mag into same. it was reliable, rugged, and a maneater.


nowdays, armor piercing flechettes, explosive, armor piercing or flame throw round can defeat modern  body armor. of the flame round tend to warp the barrel after a few shots!


sure, magazine fed, recoil or gas operated police/combat shotguns can fire faster and more shots (sometimes) than ye ancient pump actions on the ba-zillions WINCHESTER, REMINGTON, ITHACA, MOSSBERG, etc,  but they are more per snickerty, too.


as forany firearm being phallic, other than as a joke, a gun in the last thing in the world that would make me "hard". i much prefer women to guns for sexual gratification!

WARMACHINE/HORDES minis are in the 30-32 mm range.

I believe the arms of these come seperate from the bodies.

Interesting to see that people are not familiar with WM/H minis.

Well, my Menoth forces have informed me that they will cleanse this heresy immediately and re-educate the masses. :-)

Double Barrel pump-action shotgun...ideal for those Zombie Hordes 8)

There are some pretty astonishing firearms out there like the AA12 fully automatic shotgun ( really GOOD against a Zombie horde!!!) and the .600 Nitro Express Pistol.

Still a fan of the USAS-12 myself and have been for many years now. Looks like the AA-12 is an updated version. And the Frag-12 shel;ls just have so many possibilities.  :-)

I wonder if Kev at Hasslefree (or one of the other top sculptors) might be persuaded to release a sprue of these "big boys"?

There would be some great conversion potential with them  :D
