Why don't leos just use their handguns for shotgun situations? If they need a precision rifle for gun battles they already have their AR style select fire rifles in their cars anyway (a C8 carbine in the case of Canada). Do leos want to play skeet and clay on duty? Do they want do hunt waterfowl criminals? Do they want to permanently wound hippie protesters with beanbag rounds?

Fucking shotties are useless.

There should be a board rule where people who don't actually own guns shouldn't be able to talk about them.

I own 3 guns including a pump action shottie and I fail to see how this heavy ass thing is more handy than a service pistol. It's good for birds but it's outclassed by a rifle for everything else.

Again, you're clearly a noguns.

Maybe they need to breach a door?
Canuck canoe needs an oar.
Use slugs on a charging moose.
Beanbags for hipster fags named Bruce.
Rifles may over penetrate.
Pump action strength to masterbate.
Pellets disperse to blow a tire.
Variety of rounds to open fire.
Doesn't take much to think this through.
Shotguns are useful, UNLIKE YOU.

Shotguns are rare on patrol anymore. They've been replaced with patrol rifles.

Not really. Plenty of Wardens and local PD's still use 12 gauge to catch license violators and poachers.

Sowry for not conforming to any poetic meter... I would have come up with some more lines, but I'm at work.

Longguns are real guns.

Subguns are special forces.

Handguns are last resort.

This is the way of the gun world. It always has been, and always shall be.

Because when the bear hears you cock a shotgun, they run away.
