For what they are, they work well
Sure they arent 200 yard guns but from room to room stuff, they pack a punch Go |

Quoted: Because people were somehow able to use pump action shotguns effectively for around 100 years, but magic happened in the past 5 years or so and now the internet considers people too dumb to keep from short-stroking it. People used telegraphs to talk about shit too. Luckily I dont have to read on the telegraph how shotguns rock. Welcome to the future. We have real guns.

Its a very versatile platform, and for someone that could only afford one cheap long gun, they are hard to beat(can get a decent shotgun for $150). But they do have their limitations, and certainly are out performed by the AR platform in most self defense scenarios.
For people that have, or can afford other options, a shotgun is out matched. Personally right now my go to for home defense is a pistol. I have toddler aged twins, and a 6 y/o that are my number one priority, and having a free hand is absolutely necessary. Everyone must make a choice that fits them best. |

Don't see too many of those Winchester 1911 shotguns around in that condition. Nice. |

Quoted: Why? You only have 7 rounds anyways. Quoted: Quoted: Cause they suck compared to an AR when used for fighting or home defense. |
