One feature of a true howdah or pistol compared to a rifle or shotgun conversion is the curved lock plate. Allowing a shorter distance between the handgrip and triggers.

A shotgun action cut into a howdah or pistol has the lock extending horizontal too far back and a resulting awkward distance for the pistol grip to the triggers.
