.410 guage

I recall a 12ga auto shotgun based on the AR15 design, but a .410ga...do they even make a .410ga slug shotshell???

I'd think a 00buck shotshell would be cool...but it would only hold 2 "pellets" at the most...

Postino, Remington makes an excellent 2 1/2", 1/5oz. rifled slug pushing 1830fps which to my knowledge is above Magnum speed. The Federal 000 buck with 4 pellets pushes 1200fps. Both shotshells run flawlessly through the shotgun. However, I'll be using slugs 97% of the time.

John, I never thought of the older WWII and the few obscure calibre strippers. I'll have to search at the next Chantilly Gun show for one compatible. You've opened my eyes to a more comprehensive search. Hallelujah!!!!
