Harry,
What you need is a couple of those rotary magazine shotguns the SWAT Team
uses. It holds 10 rounds and with 2 of them you would be able to deliver 20
rounds of 12 ga firepower.
Now you really have to think about the type of birds you may encounter. I
would say the larger ones are of the most concern such as ducks and geeese so
I would select a 3 in magnum 12 ga shell with 1-1/2 oz of number 6 bird shot.
These firing at the same time would deliver one 36 in pattern at 40 yards
with the shot moving at 1100 FPS.
Now where to mount them. Why not build them into the wing? Then just
ground test them so that their aim points cross at the optimum pattern spread
range which is 40 yards.
The other electronic options for auto detection and auto firing should be
left to the experts but as far as insurance, I don't think you have much risk
from the Avian Litigators or their families trying to "Duck" you over!! :)
If we can get this perfected I am pretty sure Greyhawk, and friends, will
want to organize a lancair skeetshoot at OSH or SNF so we could change an
entrance fee and donate the proceeds to ducks unlimited and all remain
politically correct!
Happy Hunting.
Dave Riggs
