With a decent barrel and well fitting ammo, who knows? But it certainly would not have a hopup anymore. It would not need it.

If I remember when I looked into it, the smoothbore was picked to reduce the legal headaches.

True, it would have to be one or the other....

As far a decent barrel and well fitting ammo? I agree again, the Gov'ment would be all over it. That and the fact that to defeat friction, you'd have to start putting some real force behind it..

And who could actually afford all that extra engineering and tollerance cost?

They're friggin expensive enough now!
