A semi-automatic shotgun is: a repeating shotgun with a semi-automatic action, i.e. capable of automatically chambering new shell after each firing. But requires individual trigger-pull——to manually actuate each shot. Semi-automatic shotguns use gas operation, blowback,/recoil operation——to cycle the: action, eject the——empty shell. And load another round. The first semi-automatic shotgun was the Automatic-5 by, Browning.

Many semi-automatic shotguns also provide an optional manual means of operation such as by pump action or a charging handle.
