"Have you ever wanted a pistol that’s also a shotgun? No, not like any of these choices; I mean an actual pistol that can also be a shotgun. If that's what you need, the Pedersoli Howdah just happens to fit the bill. This is a double-barreled .45 Colt firearm with rifled barrels, but fitted with 3-inch chambers, which can also accept .410 shotshells. It might not be the prettiest firearm you've ever seen, but it is perhaps the most versatile double-barrel ever made."

The Pedersoli Howdah 45/410 (also called Perdersoli Howdah or simply Howdah) is a .45 Colt pistol with 3 inch chambers.

Other information

• The Howdah is equipped with 3 inch chambers, allowing it to also accept .410 bore ammunition. However, when loaded with .410 bore ammunition, an FT+1 malus is automatically applied due to certain limitations:
  • Projectiles from multi-projectile .410 shells (buckshot, flechette...) will spread wider, as they are fired from a rifled barrel, therefore making them less accurate than a smoothbore.
  • .410 slugs do not engage the rifling of this weapon, instead relying entirely on the shot cup for spin stabilization; therefore making them less accurate than a "proper" bullet.
