Open the door, and sit beside the driver in the passenger seat
"I call shotgun" means that you call the seat next to the driver in a car. This originates from the Old West, where the man beside the driver guarded the coach with a shotgun.
Old stagecoaches had two people sitting on top of the carriage. One was the driver, the other carried a shotgun to defend against Indians and bandits. Riding beside the driver is riding shotgun.
In the Old West of the US, stagecoaches carried passengers, freight, mail and money- and could be robbed. The driver sometimes had a guard that rode beside him on the seat, who was armed- usually with a shotgun.
Impossible to value with just the sn and no other details beside "shotgun".
None. It takes no modification to fire a pepper ball out of a standard .68 caliber barrel
This line from the poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes describes how the musket was placed next to Bess, the innkeeper's daughter, with the barrel pointing towards her chest. This demonstrates the danger she faced and the threat of violence that she was exposed to as a result of the highwayman's actions.
If a gun was parallel with the earth and was fired and at that very instant someone standing by the barrel dropped a bullet from beside the barrel, both bullets would hit the ground at the same time. Bullets start falling the instant they leave the end of the gun barrel. That is why hunters hold their rifles at an upward angle. It looks like the bullet will shoot up into the sky. The bullet will follow a curved path toward its target.
The prefix of "beside" is "be-".
Beside is a preposition, not a verb.
Yes, "beside" is a preposition in the phrase "stood beside." It shows the relationship between the subject (stood) and the object (beside).
