A 3D animation showing how a Remington 870 pump-action shotgun works. Cinema 4D was used to create each individual part, as well as animating everything. Substance Painter was used to create the wood stock and fore-end textures. Corona renderer was used for final output of lighting and textures.

This was and still is called Slam Fire. It was a quick and devastating method of emptying the tube at close ranges especially in the trenches of WW1 and Vietnam ....وسعت1335
