I prefer the Mossberg. The shell lifter stays up thus preventing finger pinches when quickly loading shells. Both are great firearms.

This pro-shotgun author is “S Miller”. I wonder if that’s Joe Biden’s pen name.

Buy a Shotgun - featuring Slow Joe.

For the record: guns are dangerous, mine fell overboard in a tragic (but fortunate) boating accident.

My choice. Old and antiquish but it does the job and never misses. Scare power is awesome. Not much good if you are being invaded but perfect for a home break-in. Overland Stage DB 12ga.

That flashlight is in a bad spot, ahead of the muzzle like that...
I guess a robust LED could take it - for a few rounds.

Last time I checked, the 870 had three controls. I understand the writer’s point is to make it sound simple. But how does he chamber that first round?

The best part... Everyone speaks 12ga pump. I don’t care who you are, you know that sound.

I like semi autos but they have problems just as pump actions or over unders do.

The old A5 humpback was a good design, I have a saiga 12 that I like, but the gas system is odd and needs regular loving.

I have an Ithica pump that is finicky feeding/ejecting shells and recoils like a mule.

Gave my buddy a Turkish O/U for a favor, it patterned great, but one day I did not have the selector fully engaged and it let both barrels go at the same time... Surprise!

I’ve other tools but I’m most comfortable with the .410 shotgun. I’m only two inches more than 4’10” myself, and my hands are child size.

Another thing I like about shotguns. The closer your target gets, the more your target gets. So targets tend to avoid getting close, and you don’t need to be a marksman. As long as you can see trouble coming, trouble sees trouble too.

However, it isn’t good for all occasions. If there’s a pit bull out there somewhere with your name on it, you can’t jog with a shotgun.

"...The AK comes in two main calibers: 7.62×39mm and 5.45×39mm...."

7.62×39mm and 5.45×39mm aren't "calibers," they're "cartridges."


...Because of its caliber, the 12 gauge shotgun....

And 12 gauge is a gauge, not a caliber.


The best thing about writing for American Shooting Urinal is that there's absolutely no pressure because no matter how bad a day you're having at the keyboard, no matter how crappily you write, you can't possibly diminish their prestige (because they're already as bad as it gets).

I love our Mossberg 500 tactical. Tang safety, ventilated forward rib, night sight ghost rings and hand camoed for our area.

Can you get a 30-round drum for that pump gun?
