Shotguns still suck for Self Defense.

All joking aside, for me, I use and train with a shotgun vs an AR.

Wow! Did you read the post?

The entire thread is a joke. Lighten up, Francis.

Your street cred continues to slide....

All joking aside, for me, I use and train with a shotgun vs an AR for 2 pessimistic reasons:

1. Ammo independancy: Super easy to reload and create defensive loads with my Lee 7/8 key drive mold with little skill level. So when the next Democrat is elected President I can buy cheap Walmart 12 ga, melt the shot down into a slug, recrimp in same hull, gtg.

2. Ban likelihood on a pump action shotgun is very minimal compared to an AR. Less likely to affect my learned tactics as I don't rely on an AR.

Same reasons above that I also carry and practice with a J frame. Again I prep pessimistically but hope for the best.

Not knocking a shotgun or your choice. But you'd allow a piece of paper dictate what you protect your family and self with? Who cares if they're banned. Choose whatever weapon you feel is superior regardless of whether a few scumbags say you're allowed to or not. Now if the shotgun is the superior weapon in your home defense then so be it. But I definitely wouldn't choose it just because another system is illegal or may become illegal. F*** them. They won't be footing the bill to bury you, your family will.
Again NOT saying the shotgun is inferior.

Reloading was required in only 3 incidents. One of those involved killing an escaped lion with a .32 caliber revolver, which was eventually successful after 13 shots.

Bahahaha!!!!

I’d love to hear THAT story!

I believe a battle rifle is a great defense weapon. However, you're right. I heard someone say,"if you have to reload an AR during a self defense scenario in the United states, you're going to be famous."
Basically meaning, that is going to be one of the most high profile cases in the nation. 30 rounds is a helluva lot of fire power.
My plan carrying a glock 19 everyday, having a rifle in my truck and beside my bed is to remove the need to EVER have to reload.

Since some of you still don't get where I really stand on this. Both of these pics were just taken from the chair at my desk.

I was talking about somebody killing a lion with a .32 revolver!

Rah! I'm sure it was the most exhilarating 10-20 seconds of his life. Bet he didn't carry small guns around large cats after that. Lol
