Ithaca sold some double barrel shotgun pistols. During Prohibition to the
syndicate. But I think they were 10" barrels. 20 guage mostly.


There are several companies selling .410 capable pistols
This is one of the newest ones but they have been around for decades

They get away with it because the barrel is rifled. One of the old
..410 pistols actually had a "choke" that spun the shot the other way
and tried to restore the pattern.
I saw a guy shooting skeet with one once at Andrews AFB but he wasn't
hitting many. It was a great "station 8" gun tho.

Many .45 Colts will shoot a .410.
