What would those reasons be?


Rick doesn’t have enough bandwidth for me to list them. Some folks know what a scattergun can do and others will never have a clue.

I agree with Dan. A shotgun is very lethal, and a home invasion would be one where distance is very close. A scattergun with the right loads would put any pos to rest.. Even birdshot or 7 1/2 shot intended for clay pigeons would prove deadly as fugg.. Blue doesn't know half of what he pretends to..



That's for those who have developed great proficiency. Many of these fellows would have to practice with a shotgun to hit a rabbit whereas others could shoot you in the face without even thinking about it.

Pointing is faster than aiming. Which Are you faster with? Maybe it is a pistol for one fellow and not another.

An interesting addition to the debate is those not a sbs shotguns. Having killed a considerable number of deer and more rabbits, shot from the hip, they make me wonder. Slower or faster than a short shotgun? Hafta to try to know.
