Has anybody ever fired an 8 guage shotgun?

The 8 guage shotgun was typically mounted on the bow of a small boat and could wipe out half a flock of nesting birds with a single blast. Great sport.

Most 8 gauge guns were made like a standard double gun..

Very few punt guns were as small as 8 gauge (.835 of an inch). Most punt guns were over an inch, many 2" , even larger. Many were in effect, home made cannons, shooting birdshot...

True, They were commonly mounted on a swivel at the bow... As you snidely say, not great sport, as it was market hunting. Many restaurants of the day specialized in wild game...

A picture of a punt gun on a boat. Not exactly sporting.

I've seen that photo before. It appears to be about a 2inch muzzle loader, Bitch to reload it it's fixed in the boat. -- And if it's a breech loader, I Wouldn't want MY face right behind it... :-)

They were called sneak boats, and one of them is said to have killed over a thousand birds with one shot. -- As you say, not sporting. Market hunting was a nasty job..
