I'm trying to find a respectful way to ask this question. I mean, for many, talking about their experiences in war is a difficult task.
So, if you don't mind my asking, has anyone here carried a shotgun into a war zone? Even though they've been very rarely issued, as Dave McC says, they always find their way into the war. I saw troops in Iraq clearing a house with a bone stock Remington 870, for example (on TV).
So, did you carry a shotgun in a war zone? If so, what kind? If you don't mind disclosing it, how'd you get your hands on it? Was it issue, or acquired through the, erm, alternate supply chain? Why'd you choose it over, say, a rifle?
Thanks!
