I shot a 12-gauge for the first time a few months back.  The 00 buckshot load did hurt my shoulder (no bruising) and my brief PTSD was overcome by the hilarity of the milk jug exploding.

Is it just me who feels that the use of these bullets goes way beyond self-defence needs?

I get what you're saying, but in self defense you do not shoot to wound.

12-gauge virgin.  I had shot a 20 gauge and a crappy .410 before.

Felt good slamming those shells in, didn't it?

It was okay.  A shotgun just seems like such a blunt, brutish tool.  It was fun to see what it did to the targets.

The recoil bruised my shoulder, which can happen if you don't know what you're doing. The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face. The smell of sulfur and destruction made me sick. The explosions — loud like a bomb — gave me a temporary form of PTSD. For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable.

How has firepower increased?  Are people running around the streets with Barrett .50 cal rifles or something?

Hey retard, the 2nd ammendment is a constitutional right, whether you like it or not. You wanna remove the 2nd? Get 38 States to support your removal of the 2nd.

In the meantime, the 2nd is a constitutional right:

When I was a lad I shot a 12 gage, memorably, into an old TV set a friend of mine was throwing out. Very satisfying.  :D

The 10 gage is even nastier. I can see why it is less popular these days.  :lol: You really have to hold it tight to your shoulder or you will regret it.

It would probably break that fellow in the article.  ;)

I don't like shotguns. Range is too limited, and if the animal is wearing body armor you are reduced to head and extremity shots, which i prefer not to do.

You are supposed to do that with every weapon system.
You hold it tight against your shoulder to control the recoil, so it pushes you instead of kicking you. Any space between your shoulder and the buttstock will give momentum to the recoil kick.

You can take an AR15 and putt it tight against your balls and fire it with no problem, as long as it is tight. Don't do that with a shotgun though.

I know; I'm just making the point that if you fail to do that with a 10 gage, you will *really* regret it, because it kicks like a mule.

Not only that, but modern guns often come with fancy padded buttstocks and the like. My dad's old 10 gage is, of course, bare wood, like nature intended.  ;) Fail to hold it tight against the shoulder, and it is like being beaten with a club - or so I'm told; I always held it tight.

My Mosin Nagant M44 carbine has a nice steel buttplate on the stock.  That's one that will definitely bruise you if you don't hold it snug against your shoulder.
