BTW, how many Freepers know civilians can’t buy double ought buckshot in Californai? But you can buy deer slugs.

So for home defense, your choices are useless birdshot of slugs that will rip through buildings.

God I hate living in California.

Then why stay? I pulled the eject handles on CA back in 95, don’t regret it.

“God I hate living in California.”

You do know what you can do about such?

“So for home defense, your choices are useless birdshot of slugs that will rip through buildings.”

Birdshot is not useless. Slugs well put do not rip through buildings.

“God I hate living in California.”

Do something about it.

I searched for such a law prohibiting the purchase of double aught buckshot in CA and I am unable to locate said law. I do not think this is an accurate statement.

I've read and heard from several sources that #4 buckshot is the best balance of stopping power / wall penetration for home defense.

Is that still available in California?

But, banning any load is reason enough to hate California.

Not a problem. Just fill cup partly w shot, top up with melt glue. Now you have a frangible 12’ slug.

Same thing goes well for 44mag, 44, 41mag, 41 and 40.
