Not bad. Any damage pics? What kind of performance are you getting with it?

looks good, the only thing i would change on it would be the barrel length, its a little to short(although it is a shotgun), but other than that very nice job.

Agreed, that or make the chamber smaller, otherwise good job

are there any reasons for the smaller chamber or bigger barrel or is it just for aesthics. I would love to make this thing better in anyway i am completely open to critism or ideas
ill have some damage pics in the next day or two maybe even a video of actual fire
any suggestions on shells? i made a new shell its a flash car cut in haft, rolled up to fit in the barrel a little wider in the back (so it doesnt fly out the barrel), i put a cottonball in the back for wadding, filled it with 50 airsoft bbs and masking tape to cover the other end.
Is a cotton ball a descent wadding?

ok since no one has commented and i dont wanna double post ill just edit this one
i know i promised some damage pics and a video but the seal on my sprinkler valve where the solenoid was broke so im currently putting new epoxy on it . but i did manage to shoot it off. i actually had my bro fire it so i could see the patern nothing it has penatrated cardboard from about 20ft so idk wat that means but i think the spread is wayy to wide. any suggestions? i think like some of you said a longer barrel would help

You can make it a bit neater like this and cut down on the dead space between the projectile and the valve:
