Abstract
A breech release for a shotgun includes a push button, a return spring, a spring retainer, a threaded steel rod, and a release slide. the return spring is located between the push button and spring retainer. when the breech release engages with a breech, the breech release bisects an outer breech which hinged an inner breech, holding the breech closed in its default position. When the button is depressed, the button moves the slide out of the inner breech, allowing the breech to open.
