A bolt action rifle having a receiver; a bolt in slidable communication within said receiver, having an elongated body and a bolt head at a first end, and an exposed bolt face with a primer recess cavity having a base with a forward-facing surface, the base having an aperture therein, where the aperture is circumscribed by the forward-facing surface for receiving a propellant charge having an extended primer cap, and a firing pin within the bolt and movable between a disengaged position wherein a firing pin head is receded within the aperture and an engaged position wherein the firing pin head extends beyond the forward-facing surface into the primer recess cavity.

A compact shotgun, a trigger assembly that could be used with such compact shotgun or other firearms, and an adapter and multipurpose mount that could be used with firearms or other devices are all disclosed. Each element has separate utility and combined utility in forming a combined under-mounted shotgun and long gun assembly.
