Bullpup Revolver Shotgun Design
A Bull Pup shotgun design is not new. The High Stanard Model 10 and H&K's CAWS are two early examples. Whats new here is the revolver type cylinder and its in a bull pup form. I've already seen people concerned that if theres a KABOOM, it would be close to your face. Although thats a legitimate concern. I think if you use factory ammo you should be okay. Soldier System Daily is reporting that the SIX12 is designed for breachers so this sounds like a specialty shotgun. But lets admit it, it looks way cool.
Weird, cool.
Didn't realize its a revolver type deal. Are those banned in mass flat out? Would of sworn I read they are . But the 410/45 ones are legal cause it's rifled . I'm not thinking of the pistols that shoot 410/45 ...the full size 12g revolver style shotguns.Which... dun dun dun... I don't think it should be

Looks dangerous, it should be regulated.

Would I be wrong to assume you would need a Bayo lug to mount it? Like a M203, or is it attached to the bottom rail? Can't really tell. I'll still take the standalone.

I can see that being usefull in close quarters. But I guess it's way out there, price wise.
Weird, cool.
RedJacket already changed that game...
ETA:
Maybe for breaching... Or if you run out of magazines for what it's attached to.
So is the six cylinder like a magazine that is quick change? Looks like it from the pic. That makes it better...

Crye Precision is now in the gun business. Caleb Crye decided that it was time to fix the problems facing breaching team members by applying their own brand of forward thinking design to improve the weight, size and manipulation of the underslung shotgun. The weapon’s lead designer, Eric Burt, above, decided the limiting factor in breaching guns is the length of their action and magazine.By combining a bullpup action and a revolving magazine, the length of the Six12 is decreased and ergonomics are improved dramatically over a traditional Masterkey style breeching gun. The Six12 is not a pump action. The trigger is a double action that spins the chamber, extends a chamber collar and fires the round in one pull. The magazine holds six 3″ 12 gauge rounds and fires them through a 12.5″ barrel.
Six12 will come in three configurations. The first is a the 12″ breaching configuration that mounts under an AR hanguard using picatinny rail. This version is an NFA item and will require a tax stamp for civillian purchase.
The second version is identical to the breaching configuration except for it’s 18″ barrel which makes it a easier to purchase as a non-NFA item. Mounted on AR, the 18″ Six12′s barrel extends barely an inch past the muzzle of a 16″ barrel. The last version is a standalone shotgun with a 22″ barrel, pistol grip and shoulder stock.
Pricing is not yet available on the Six12 system and it’s not expected to hit dealers before the summer. Interestingly, the gun is manufactured in Crye’s factory in Brooklyn, NY. According to Crye, they may be the only FFL manufacturing firearms in New York City in this century.
