    Yep, there's probably nothing more lethal at room distances up to 30 to 40 yards than the tactical shotgun. In terms of mortality when compared to shots fired, the mass shooters that have used them prove this point. If you could make every semi-auto on the planet disappear, the mass shooters would quickly move toward the scattergun. It's just a matter of time till the looney anti-gun left wants to ban these as well. Ultimately we know what the real goals of the liberals are and don't believe their lies.

    The limey handgun ban didn't impact on shotguns. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a big fan of blowing pheasants out of the sky for sport. Just stating the obvious...

    Just FYI, we're not talking matched Purdey's here. It's about tactical shotguns. Get in the game.

    That's the problem. There's no game theory that fits the narrative that you're pretending to be true

    Pretending? There's no game theory here, only hard reality and decades of experience hard won. Did you know that probably the single biggest factor in the Gunfight at the OK Corral was that Doc Holliday was armed with a shotgun and that depending upon the source that every principal involved was hit by gunfire at least once with the exception of Wyatt Earp.

    So no intellectual analysis into interaction and policy making, nor any case study support from the likes. Just foot stamping.

    Those John Wayne cowboy films weren't a fair representation? Wowsers

    Could you explain how "policy making" applies to the tactical use of shotguns. You seem somewhat confused on the subject.

    If Hillary could have she would have banned the Benelli's.

    If.

    In the UK the serious crime element carries sawed off shotguns.

    As for me, I specifically did not want a Benelli because (1) they burn thru ammo too fast and (2) my pump action Mossberg is safer from a ban.

    I know Hillary is crooked but I don't think she would compromise her anti gun standards for money this time.

    She has enough money already.

    And she's from Chicago.

    I'll take your word for it.

    I also hate semi autos (except for my beloved Ruger Mini) because they jam too much.

    One shot one kill.

    That's what I was taught by Momma Green and Uncle Sam.

    One shot includes one shot shell.
