The Model 1000 was available in 12-gauge and 20-gauge, with trap (1000T) and skeet (1000S) variants. Both gauges were offered with 2 + 3 ⁄ 4-inch (7.0 cm) chambers; the 12-gauge was also sold with a 3-inch (7.6 cm) chamber for magnum shotshells. [1] The Model 1000 was offered by Smith & Wesson from 1973 to 1985. [3]
The A-10 engines were initially susceptible to flameout when subjected to gases generated in the firing of the gun. When the GAU-8 is being fired, the smoke from the gun can make the engines stop, and this did occur during initial flight testing. [4] Gun exhaust is essentially oxygen-free, and is capable of causing flameouts of gas turbines ...
The 20-gauge shotgun is the next most popular size, being favored by shooters uncomfortable with the weight of a 12-gauge gun, and is popular for upland game hunting. The next most popular sizes are the .410 bore and the 28 gauge. The least popular sizes are the 10 gauge and the 16 gauge; while far less common than the other four gauges, they ...

The Remington Model SP-10 is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun chambered for 10 gauge 3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (8.9 cm) Magnum shells. It was produced by Remington Arms from 1989 to 2010. [ 3 ] The design was based on the Ithaca Mag-10 .
The Ithaca Mag-10 was the world’s first 10 GA semi-automatic gas-operated shotgun chambered in 10-gauge (3½"). The CounterCoil system built into the front of the magazine tube reduced the recoil from the round to allow easier second shots but cut the magazine size in half to 2 shells.
Originally, the Model 10 was sold to law enforcement only. The concept of this shotgun was quite interesting to many police agencies who adopted the Model 10 in the late 1960s and early 1970s; however, most of the agencies found many shortcomings, and ultimately ceased using the Model 10. The most common problem was the failure to cycle correctly.
The Remington Model 10 is a pump-action shotgun designed in 1908 by John Pedersen for Remington Arms. [2] It has an internal striker within the bolt and a tube magazine which loaded and ejected from a port in the bottom of the receiver. [5] An updated version, the Model 29, was introduced in 1930 with improvements made by C.C. Loomis. [3]
