This is like how in World War I, pilots would shoot at each other with handguns.

I am surprised at how stable the drone firing the shotgun is after the gun fires. There appears to be very little recoil.

What's a hard drive drone?

a semi-automatic shotgun has a lot less recoil than a single shot gun because it uses the recoil energy to cycle in the next round.

Not sure what type of action they have on these guns

Could be recoilless, you'd loose range by having the breech open / semi open but the trade off is not ripping the attacking drone apart.

I guess you could load the shells twice as hot
