    Gosh! If these kids hadn’t walked out I would have had no idea there were problems!

    Anyway, single-shot shotguns are stupid cheap and reliable. Stick with 12-gauge. Yeah, it kicks, there are ways to dial it in, but it’s the cheapest and has the most punch. 00-buck is the cheapest and most common ammo, and it does indeed pack a wallop.

    Longer barrels burn more of the powder, more velocity, tighter pattern. Shorter barrels don’t hit as hard, spread the shot more quickly. Know the range you intend to engage at!

    Anyway, what were we talking about?

      Immigration is a sensitive topic, but I think you’re better off with #1 Buck at common engagement distances
