What “shotgun” means
Wiktionary · Wikipediashotgun
- nounA gun which fires loads typically consisting of small metal balls, called shot, from a cartridge.
- verb(smoking) To inhale from a pipe or other smoking device, followed shortly by an exhalation into someone else’s mouth.
A shotgun is a long-barreled firearm designed to shoot a straight-walled cartridge known as a shotshell, which discharges either numerous small spherical projectiles called shot, or a single solid projectile called a slug. Shotguns are most commonly used as smoothbore firearms, meaning that their gun barrels have no rifling on the inner wall, but rifled barrels for shooting sabot slugs are also available.
