I've shot the M-79 a lot, not that much recoil really. Of course the ammo was free at that time.

In a reply to my e-mail they said they have an action in the works, but no posting on their web-site.

You did notice the buffers they sell, that should length the recoil time and greatly reduce the felt recoil.

Maybe a fellow could achieve the same kind of performance that JOHN TAYLOR wrote about, when he borrowed that old ML double at the end of WW11 when he could not find ammo. The old fellow he got the gun from cautioned him from loading both bores because it doubled, TAYLOR forgot and loaded both and was on the spoor of a huge old bull elephant. It seems when he let go on the old bull the gun flew from his hands, he went flying as the smoke cleared, he noted the old bull had fallen away from the shot. This had never happened to him, as they always fell towards the gun. He felt the bull had been picked up off his feet at the impact of the two shots.
