I think that the author might have been referring to this gun when he said double barrel shotgun.

Interesting.
Now though according to an article that firearm has expired and has been replaced with a handgun. I doubt American counterparts have such measures. |

Well, that mission in question was a few years ago, so it could've been replaced by a handgun by now. But if we're talking about surviving in the wild, I would think a shotgun/carbine/machete combo would be more useful, albeit more heavy.

Back in 1999, during the anniversary of the Apollo moon landing, there was this one show that claimed that the Apollo Astronauts carried a handgun. If it true, I wondered if it was a pistol, revolver, or a Gyro Jet.

Why would they carry a Gyro jet handgun? Those were innaccurate and kinda pointless.
