Actually the UBS-7 is double-barreled, each barrel feeding from its own
magazine, not a double tube feeding a single barrel.
However, this _has_ given me an idea for a shotgun with two magazines and a
switch to select which one to use :) Sort of like that dual-magazined MP-40
actually...

Yes it is. Look at the picture -- you can't saw more than half a centimeter
(in the picture) off the barrel 'cause then you cut through your gas system.
At least, I assume the tube above the barrel contains the piston for the
CMDT's gas-operated mechanism. The only way to do that is to shorten the
piston as well, and you'd better have a good Firearms B/R skill to do that
(or get lucky with your dice rolls :)
But look at the Ruger 100 (BTW, doesn't that look awfully much like a Steyr
AUG?), and it looks like you can cut down the barrel for at least 2.5 cm
(again, in the picture).
