Shooting enthusiasts would flock to the border for a chance to bag a drone.

...shotgun...

FTA:

"The cover of darkness and the high speeds the drones can fly at make it nearly impossible for agents to shoot them down, even if they were allowed to use their firearms."

I know that "shotgun" is the first thing that comes to mind, but clearly you've never been duck hunting. Do you know how high drones can fly, and what the effective range of a shotgun is?

Drone hovering over your teenage daughter as she suns herself poolside? Sure. Open ground between Mexico and the U.S.? You'll probably never even see it or hear it as it cruises over your head at 500'.

A DJI Phantom can fly at 1600 feet if you override the 400 foot Altitude Limit. You can’t even see it from the ground at that height. They cruise at 22-30 mph. A shotgun isn’t going to hit it.
