Some are multiple shot, but usually you get a singleshot (two from a double barrel, which is literally two shotguns side by side with one handle).
You "break" the breech (open the back, bending the handle down from the barrel), insert a shell, close the breech (if done one-handed, this is sometimes refered to as snapping it, especially in Westerns), turn off the safety (push a button), aim and squeeze the trigger.
It will feel like a donkey kicked you in the shoulder. The tighter you hold it, the better you absorb the recoil. Those guys who fire a shotgun onehanded, holding it away from thier bodies would break thier wrist trying that in real life.
That help?
