The vid in the link demonstrates a sort of almost, but not quite semi-automatic shotgun.

The quick version is that the bolt locks open after every shot and is released by a somewhat conveniently located lever near the right thumb. Ejection is automatic, but chambering the next round must be done manually.
I'm wondering if any CA compliant ARs are on the horizon that employ a similar concept. With a little practice, a shooter could place aimed shots almost as fast a real semi-auto and certainly faster than with a bolt.
