Pic with the action open.
This is not a hinged break-open type shotgun.
This is not a hinged break-open type shotgun.
It's the French DARNE series of shotguns/double rifles. The breechblock is slid back by pulling up a hinged lever for loading and unloading. It makes sense since you do not have a set of barrels on a hinge where play between the barrel and receiver assemblies can loosen up over time. With the DARNE lockup, the action locks up more consistently (more important if it's a double rifle).
They made flintlock versions of a muzzle loading 1911 too.
But the one you showed looks like it uses a genuine 1911 firearm frame.
I gotta look that up.
(Of course it would be .45 caliber; anything less and the owners of 1911 pistols wouldn't bother buying it!!!)
