Video is part of construction of self-defense shelter (shotgun is
wielded by robotic sentry).

Somehow a guy who posts video of himself committing a felony doesn't
come across as someone one would wish to emulate.


It's only for shooting flares from his dingy in case he's in
imminent peril from a man-eating giant squid. Perfectly legal
(unless he taunted the squid in the first place).


I imagine if it will chamber a 2 3/4" shotgun shell the BATFE will
call it a short barreled shotgun. A flare pistol won't.


Heh!

Check out Aquila shot shells. You can load 10 in a 7-shot 12 gauge magazine.

Nevertheless, the ATF frowns on modifying a flare gun into a weapon:

The tests were conducted on PLASTIC flare guns (the only kind readily
available). What would happen to a pre-WWII BRASS flare gun is yet to be
seen.
