Not sure what you mean by OP but if you mean the Poster of this thread it would be commendable for any new gun owner to take the time to familiarize himself with his new shotgun. But I don’t know the poster so I generalize here because when talking about human nature it is all you have.
The average person does not read the owners manual of a new car and they are more likely to die in that car than they are carrying their new 870.
Shotguns will not miss their mark in the dark of 2AM. A pistol very well may several times over.
Anyone who shoots in the dark is a fool. They don’t know where the mark is or who.
Because, from the points I have listed above, you are not being factual. .
Oh! Did you post facts? I must have missed them. With the exception of the FBI data and shotgun pattern I never claimed to anything but opinion. You should stick to the same.
Re: Anyone who shoots in the dark is a fool.
So if it’s 2Am and I hear and can identify gang members in the hallway, I am a fool for shooting them?
Guess I should turn on the lights so we can shake hands and get acquainted. /extreme sarc
