The Striker design has a twelve round magazine capacity and short overall length. The last version has the clockwork winding mechanism removed, the ejector rod has been replaced by an automatic ejection system and in the rodвЂ™s place is a cocking lever that winds the drum automatically. Shell ejection was by an ejector rod along the right hand side of the barrel. The shells had to be individually loaded and then the drum wound by a clockwork mechanism. The first designs were criticized as having a slow and cumbersome firing mechanism. The design was changed into having a cocking lever on the right side of the barrel.

Since the Striker uses a conventionalВ double actionВ only trigger and a very large and heavy cylinder (compared to handguns), Walker added a pre-wound clock-work spring to revolve the magazine which proved to make loading the weapon slow. The weaponвЂ™s action is similar to that of a revolver, using a rotating magazine. The new shotgun was named the Protecta.ДЄ copy of the Striker was made by the US gunmakerВ CobrayВ and marketed as the SWD Street Sweeper from 1989 through 1993. Walker redesigned his weapon in 1989, removing the cylinder rotation mechanism, and adding an auto cartridge ejection system. The rotary cylinder-type magazine was bulky, had a slow reload time, and the basic action was not without certain flaws.

Even though it was successful, the shotgun still had its flaws. His shotgun became a success, and was exported to various parts of the world. Walker subsequently emigrated toВ South Africa, bringing with him the design for the Striker shotgun. The Armsel Striker was designed by a Zimbabwean national, Hilton R. The Armsel StrikerВ also known as the Sentinel Arms Co Striker-12,В is aВ 12-gauge shotgunВ with a revolving cylinderВ that was designed for riot control and combat.
