Hey all, I'm eyeballing Shotguns again.
I was just curious about what some of you wise gentleman thought of using a 'Field' style shotgun defensively.
I'm thinking of picking up a Benelli SuperNova in the field configuration. I'm leaning towards the Field style because I may be informally shooting clays with friends, or go waterfowling with family.
I'd also want to be able to use it for HD if I ever had to. Right now a Glock 27 pulls night stand duty.
Also, when I say Home Defense I just mean locking down a secure room while the Fiance calls the police. I wouldn't be looking for Mr. Badguy in my home. My intuition says it'll be fine for the job, but I like feedback.
EDIT: I did read through some of Mr. Dave McCracken "On Fighting Shotguns" thread. Good stuff.
Thoughts? Opinions? I'm always up for advice.
Thanks!
