Appears to be a handy little device.
AA-12 Gauge Shotgun
Military Police Systems recently unveiled a must-have weapon in the current CQB environment. The company out of Piney Flats,
Tennessee has come out with a unique selectable (via a unique trigger) 12-gauge shotgun called the Auto Assault 12 Automatic Shotgun or AA-12 Automatic Shotgun. The AA name originally stood for "Atchisson Assault" after the original inventor but has been changed since Military Police Systems purchased the rights to the unique weapon.
The weapon utilizes a constant recoil system that reduces recoil by 90% as compared to a traditional 12 gauge shotgun. The reduction in
recoil is the primary reason that this shotgun can be fired effectively in the automatic mode. With little or no barrel rise, this weapon is a monster when clearing rooms! The weapon will
definitely become a force multiplier with its ease of operation and massive firepower in both the law enforcement and military arenas.
Technical Data -
* Caliber - 12 Gauge (2 3/4" Shells)
* Rate of Fire - 300 Rounds per minute/fires a 20 round drum in about 4 seconds
* Operations - Long Stroke Gas Piston with constant recoil
* Length - 33 Inches with 13 Inch Barrel (same size as an M4 with
stock Extended). 38 Inches with 18 Inch Barrel
* Weight - 10.0 lbs with 13 Inch Barrel. 10.5 lbs with 18 Inch Barrel
* Feeding Device - 8 round magazine, 20 round drum magazine, 40 round drum magazine (in development)
* Safety - Thumb Safety

Rear: Protected Ring which is adjustable for W/E.
* Stock - Glass filled nylon available in: Urban Grey, Desert Tan, Olive, Drab, Black, and Various other Camouflage Patterns
* Finish - Matte Stainless Steel
* Made of corrosion resistant, high impact, heat-treated stainless steels and high-impact plastics
* Low Maintenance - During a Blackwater shoot, 5000 ROUNDS were fired through a single weapon WITHOUT cleaning or a drop of Lube.
What is Constant Recoil? - When the weapon's gun bolt is cycling a round, a gas system absorbs most of the shock and energy, about 80%
of the total recoil. The weapon also has a very strong recoil spring that absorbs another 10% of the recoil. The result is a weapon that cycles efficiently and effortlessly while transferring 10% of the recoil of a normal 12 gauge to the shooter!
The Video - See this monster in action being fired with both magazines and the 20 round drum.
Notice the system explained above and how the weapon is stable and has virtually no barrel rise.

Re: Appears to be a handy little device.
Does anyone remember a similar drum (basically recoil-less) shotgun that was made back in the early 80's in Ridgway, PA. The name of the gun escapes me right now, but I thought the guns were rendered illegal and taken off the market?? Oh, damn, I wish I could remember what they were called.

Oh wow, I didn't realize that was made here in PA. I know Cobray sells the kits still.

No, it was called the Striker 12 and was made by Penn Arms. Penn Arms still makes some 37mm and 40mm launchers.
The "Street Sweeper" was Cobray's knock off of the Striker 12. The Street Sweeper was not as well made as the Striker 12. I know 2 guys who worked for Penn Arms at the time. One told me he was proof testing both guns and the Street Sweeper came apart on him.
Both are classified as DD's now.
