I WANT ONE OF THESE!

A pump action shotgun that can fire 3 shots in HALF A SECOND!!!!!!!!!!
Pump-action Winchester SXP rifles are made for hunting and are not considered assault weapons, but police said they had "substantially" increased their border inspections in the wake of the Nov. 13 Paris attacks and subsequent alert in Belgium.

"Given the delicate nature of the cargo, its origin and its destination, the documentation regarding the rifles was immediately examined," the statement said.

According to the company's website, the shotguns seized are the fastest pump-action rifles in the market, capable of delivering three shots in half a second.
lol lol

The Islamist militants who killed 130 people in the French capital mainly used Kalashnikov assault rifles, or AK-47s.

Typical anti-gun police hysteria. While there may be people who can fire 3 shots in half a second - like Ed McGivern with a S & W revolver - but how many Ed MCGiverns do they think are out there? Gimme a large personal break!

The Winchester website might be great for the USA market, but it plays right into the hands of the European anti brigade. **** ****

Would love to see Joe Punter doing it, not a trick shooter.

It is surprisingly easy with the SXP to fire three in under two seconds.

I have one.

I can fire four on target with my Hatsan in 1.5 seconds (electronically timed). I think I am marginally quicker with the CZ HC-P because it has better sights and is lighter??

Whoever the police have used to verify this claim (which they OBVIOUSLY did 8-) ) should enter a few PSG COMPS, they'll clean up(!)

Shouldn't we be saying it takes around 10 minutes to fire three shots?.........you never know who's reading these forums looking for mud.

Well I tested one yesterday and they don't work as claimed. Those times are set by trick shooters with heavily modified factory guns, unavailable to the public.
