This video from Forgotten Weapons examines the Ljutic Space Gun, a unique single-shot 12 gauge shotgun developed by Al Ljutic. Known for its unorthodox design and remarkable recoil reduction, achieved through a heavy striker system that counteracts recoil, the Space Gun was a departure from Ljutic's later, more traditional but equally acclaimed Mono-Gun trap shotguns. Only about 200 Space Guns were produced, with this example being #107. The video delves into the locking and firing mechanisms that contribute to its comfortable shooting experience, addressing a common misconception that it is a slam-fire gun.
This YouTube video presents a "Top 10" list of the best shotguns ever used for trap shooting. It highlights specific models such as the Ljutic Space Gun, Remington 870, Winchester Model 12, Browning BT-99, Krieghoff K-80, Perazzi MX8, Winchester Super X1, Browning Broadway, Ithaca SBT, and Remington 1100. The video also briefly explains the origins of trap shooting and the unique challenges associated with the sport, emphasizing the specialized features of trap guns like long barrels and high ribs for consistent aiming.
