I don't understand why you guys are throwing down the gauntlet. Geez, Drjones just said he found his experience with the PGO more pleasant than he thought it would be. You guys are replying like he said he could best you in a shoot-out. I also own a PGO and my experience with it on the range has convinced me it is an appropriate weapon for me for defense in my small home -- better than the pistol I own, in fact. I'm a big guy, so recoil control isn't a problem. And I expect that if I use it in my home, the target will be within 25 feet, and I can handle that with no problem. But I see no reason to accept a challenge from a very experienced shotgunner that can outshoot me. What's the point? I wouldn't use it to shoot birds or whatever you call those clay things.
