That appears to be the Pedersen Device. It's a conversion that turns a 1903 springfield rifle into a semi-auto carbine. It fires it's own special .30 caliber ammunition from a 40 round two column magazine. They were intended for use in WWI, but the war ended before they could really be fielded. Really rare today, as most were trashed after.

"The PSh used a two-stage feed system, borrowed from the 1900-period Gabbet-Fairfax “Mars” pistol of British origin. This system, in which the cartridge is first pulled back from the magazine and placed on a lifter, then raised inline with the barrel and fed forward and into the chamber, was necessary because of the elongated barrel, which protruded back into the action. To further complicate the construction, its designer Shevchenko used a very rare gas-operated locking system first (and probably last) used in a WW2-era prototype Horn assault rifle from Germany. This system employs two small gas pistons that are forced by gas pressure sideways from the frame and into locking recesses in the slide. Another strange feature was a hand-cocking device, probably taken from HK P7 pistol, but in a twist – instead of full-hand cocking lever PSh employed some form of a second trigger, located below the “primary” trigger and used to cock the striker when pressed by one middle finger. If you still not have enough of this design, it also had a ribbed, aluminium jacket on the barrel, and a very special sort of slide stop, that locked slide open once there was ONE cartridge left in the gun. The claimed purpose of this arrangement was to allow shooter to make its “deliberate last shot” – in its own head, probably."

>>11996849

omg its like you can see the holes yourself

>>12002929
It's only obsolete until you find a way to make it deadlier than before.

>>12002975
hence why no ones been using it for centuries, after millions of bux and thousands of experiments

>>12002995
Give it time and it will come.

>>12003035
wanna bet

>>12002995
Well pointed objects do a very good job of punching through kevlar, problem is that I cannot see an arrow type projectile fragmenting very well.

>>12003148
It was actually good, it got rejected because they used a sabot to fire it.

When the sabot broke apart it could injure friendlies who were nearby, that and shitty plastics...

>>12003202
so basically it was a good idea on paper, and paper only. shame

>>12003264
Not quite, I'm sure someone will figure out how to fix the problems and make it effective.

perhaps someday we'll have soldiers firing mini-arrows magnetically with rail-weapons.

>>12003319
and then someone will come around and go "hang on why arnt we just using balls or bullets". i dunno, i just see arrows as a product of a totally different projectile requirement. I imagine theres something better, even if it goes back to "arrows"

It has quite an unusual feeding mechanism.

Does the Webley count as a forgotten weapon?

It's rarely discussed here, no longer being manufactured, uses a caliber that is also no longer being manufactured, and is British.

>>12003729
In about 90% of British shows that have a pistol in them they use Webleys. It's not forgotten

Sjogren Shotgun.

>>12007091
recoil operated?

>>12007245
Yes, like the new Benelli shotguns (I'm not good with shotguns actually so I think I got the name wrong, maybe its Beretta).

>>12007727
inertia operation on Benelli and Remington and some other semi auto shotguns is fairly common. the gas operated shotguns are far rarer; the most current popular one being the Benelli M4
