The Army's Dismounted Battlespace Battle Lab at Fort Benning, Georgia, has developed and is testing a 12 gauge shotgun system that attaches under the M-4 carbine. By itself it weighs just 2 pounds 11 ounces and is 16.5 inches in length. It fires either a lethal, non-lethal or breaching round.
The immediate plan, when testing is complete, is to field the weapon with the 10th Mountain Division in Afghanistan.
Here's the Army News Service press release.
Intesting Shotgun. I wonder if it using regular shotgun ammo?
