You have a right to question that. It was a pretty startling opinion that I have about that. Your left hand on the pump can apply more force and speed than the blowback of the gasses used in many semi-autos like the AK-47. The gases have a long path to travel. Some semi-autos are recoil operated so they would be faster than the gas blowback system. A luger is a recoil reload system using a toggle bolt system. Ever notice how slow the toggle moves? A pump shotgun could certainly reload faster than that system.
