If you fire a live shotgun round in a flare pistol you will likely be
picking it out of your teeth and other inconvenient places. Tests
have shown that they are not even up to firing a .410 shell with a
steel reducing sleeve in the barrel.

You musta missed the 'more than once' part. :)

You can buy tear gas and pepper spray rounds for the 12 guage flare
launchers but I do not have them. I might get some pepper spray
canisters but have not done so.

I'd pay a reasonable amount of money to see you firing a heavy 12-gauge
round out of a flare gun. You could use the proceeds to rebuild your hand
and face.

Dumfoch.

Whose army were you in, anyway? Didn't you get any weapons training?

Herring never fails to amaze with his outright stupidity.

Taurus makes a small pistol called the Judge that shoots .45 Colt ammo
or .410 shotgun shells. Now, that pistol might be "amenable" to firing
..410 flares, though I haven't seen any of those in years. I wouldn't
fire flares out of that pistol without first checking with the pistol's
manufacturer, though.

I like that idea. Keep the .357 as a back up.

Even if the launcher could handle the force, the range would be about 3
feet. The burn on a shotgun shell is most likely designed for at least 16"
barrel.

I have fired a 12 gauge shell out of a 6" pipe and it sounded pretty
convincing. I didn't chrono it but it would certainly back the bad guy
up.

BTW if you did have a short barreled shotgun (less than 18") you would
need a $200 tax stamp for it. Technically that pipe I put down on my
old Monkey Ward single barrel shotgun receiver was a violation of
NFA34 but I was probably young enough to be tried as a juvenile.

I did assemble pipe that into a last ditch, end of the alley weapon
and it ended up with a DC cop who thought it was an interesting idea.

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

Guess that answers my question, asshole.
