dont even need that plus it would prolly be too complicated. just do it like a paintball pistol.

Exactly, but now to make it as real as possible by moving the feed tube to the bottom longer barrel bigger stock. You could prolly almost make a 1:1 scale replica. Now you may ask your self well now if the feed tube is moved to the bottom how ill the paintballs move up into the chamber now that gravity cannot help. well simple, basically now on the inside of this thing you would have a mini "cyclone sys" type devise at the end of the feed tube under the chamber and it would work the way it does in the A5.the spring loaded feed tube would push a ball into the prong from the cyclone which by the way would be on its side to lift the ball up. It would lift the ball up and charge the air chamber at the same time when it gets pumped. Ball comes up and get put into place and then blam there you have it a paintball shot gun. And yall are right this thing would sell like Hot cakes.  Maybe Tippmann should handle this. Il go post about it on their forum.

 

so what do ya think?

Why dont you just use a spring to push the balls in. KISS yo.

Perhaps a Airsoft gun that isnt crappy, Runs off of co2 and would fire 10 Paint-bbs at once that spread apart? Something like that

Here's a shotgun...

I remember him shooting this at somebody and all you heard was "I'M OUT!!!  I'M Out...  Oh god, oh god, I'm out..."  It shot 5x 68cal and about 15x 50cal paintballs. I think that's what his loads were.

nope doesn;t work, but I've seen the shotgun in person before. Its really cool, and really big.

Pretty much, yes.

Why do you need a paintball shotgun. The only reason you would consider one is for, oh say, being close. If you are close enough to use a paintball shotgun, you are probably about to get lit up. And to those of you thinking about loading airsoft pellets into your tallon pump, i think most people agree with me when i say, i'm not going to play with you.

no one likes to be bonus balled so shotgun=crappy idea. i think scepter combat systems had a shotugn in the works but it got scraped, just like there windrunner sniper rifle idea. and rap 4 makes a gernade launcher that holds 6 or 8 im not sure of the thunder gernades that have a spread pattern so why don't you just use it?
