Wow perfect split, I didn't think that was actually possible
Its not possible by blocking the barrel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBusters_(2005_season)#Finger_in_a_Barrel
Likely this barrel was deformed manually using tools.
Heh.

I wonder if the ATF will raid them for having a short barrel shotgun now...
Not a coincidence. If you look at the flash/recoil compensator it looks like a classic 3 way with the tearing starting on the openings.
I would bet it could be more common with old rifles when they had worse quality metal.
