Oddly enough having such a short barrel reduces the recoil momentum must be conserved ie the push back has to equal the push forward, the short barrel reduces the speed and the momentum. fortunatelyl for the person firing it most of the energy in the powder is wasted

Tell me more about that. I’d like to know. I am a huge fan of the black talon as a home defense round. Smaller caliber but with more stopping power. say a 9mm vs. a 40 standard slug. Thoughts?

Yep, cops follow orders as does the military. That doesn’t mean they liked it.

All that was fine until cops starting looking like the military, being outfitted like the military, and treating the rest of us like the enemy in an occupied country.

As soon as all of that started happening, I bailed on supporting the cops.

Flechettes are like little arrows you can load into a shot shell. Buy some, they’re cheap: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/AMM005-57714-1395.html

You live in the wrong place. Where I am the cops ride one in a car, wear short sleeves in the summer, don't even put on the hat anymore and carry nothing but a nine. If that's too military for you I suggest you try London.
