This video examines the Roper Repeating Shotgun, a design patented by Sylvester Roper in 1866. The shotgun features a 4-round magazine for 12-gauge shells and an unusual open-bolt firing mechanism. Although the specific example shown is missing internal magazine components and has a damaged bolt, it represents a significant historical firearm. The description also notes Roper's broader inventive contributions, including his work with Christopher Spencer on pump-action shotguns and his pioneering efforts in motorcycle design. The video originates from the "forgottenweapons.com" channel.
