***What about bean bag rounds fired from a shotgun?***

Bean bags is what got one of our border patrol agents killed when return fire was done with a HOLDER supplied FAST AND FURIOUS rifle.

“Bean bags is what got one of our border patrol agents killed when return fire was done with a HOLDER supplied FAST AND FURIOUS rifle.”

I don’t expect cops to routinely carry bean bag guns but they should be available to use based on the threat. In the hypothetical call to a ‘man wielding a knife’ maybe the second on scene would deploy the bean bag gun or other non-lethal means to subdue the dude.

- Our borders are no place to bet our LE’s life on bean bags

- Recently .50bmg ammo was fired at our LE from across the river -

- How would a chainsaw work then?

Kindly note that I am not advocating a bean bag shotgun has the only option, or even as the primary option. But in some cases it could be one option out of many.
