10Gauge Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 The old street sweeper is redesigned and lives in the AA12......see the link below; http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/guns/recoilless-auto-shotgun-fires-300-rounds-per-minute-no-cleaning-or-lube-required-324453.php?autoplay=true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaegerbataillon511 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Wow..what do you want with that?? Birdhunting..smallgames..editing mountains and landscapes? I got my Benelli M4 license from the Police in my country for hunting "Wildschweine" with slugs (wild porks) in plain english. It has got a 2 round limiter inside the long magazine tube to meet the hunting regulations in my world..so...hmmm.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caligvla Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Living in Los Angeles an AA12 would be perfect for home defense, yet they are banned in California. Gee do you think there is a correlation between the insanely high crime here and the excessive restrictions on how we are able to defend ourselves?

MrMilitaryPolice Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 that big, clunky thing couldnt hold the original 'street sweeper's jock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Gauge Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 MMP, I beg to differ with you on that......the "original" street sweeper only had a 12 round capacity and while shooting it the thing was impossible to keep on target after the 3rd or 4th shot! You also had to "wind-up" the street sweeper magazine because it operated by a clock-spring (weak design). If you watch this video you can see how the AA12 is virtually recoiless and has a 32 round capacity if your so inclined....WOW! My guess is a weapon of this design (AA12) would cost way over $5000....the "original" street sweeper was a toy by comparison....kinda like comparing a .45 Thompson Sub-Machine gun to a Mini-Gun, no comparison! (IMHO) Here is a link to the "old" street sweeper; http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh09-e.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMilitaryPolice Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 the original SS was by no means a perfect gun but it was a blast to shoot (no pun intended), ha.. recoil was a beast and and loading was often problematic but when it put lead down range, it wa perfect at that..my dislikes of the AA is the SIZE, cost im sure and alot of composite..the SS was compact, not 'heavy' but heavier and damn wicked to loook at...thats my comparison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Gauge Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 MMP, all very valid points! I liked shooting the old "street sweeper" too, we used to laugh about how quickly we could go thru a 1/2 box of shells! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
