Additional information: Shotgun appears to be a Mossberg 590. It looks like one round has already been fired, you can see the smearing from an apparent buckshot load on the lock and door. Also note the shotgun's breech is not yet closed. 4/23/08--Added an inset showing an enlarged view of the area around the lock, showing the muzzle, the broken lock, and the smearing of lead on the lock and door from the buckshot.
