What to do when you want a pistol gripped shotgun?

I wish this video was better quality...it's hard to see the clays.
first clay clean hit
second clay broke in the launcher and I hit the biggest chunk that flew
third clay I winged and deflected with the third shot, hit it with the forth and missed the remaining shard with the last shot

This was my first time shooting clays with a PGO and my fourth time shooting clays ever.

If your saying that one cannot become accurate with a pg shotgun, i'll have to disagree. Hell I used to deer hunt in MN with an old man who always fired from the hip and I can't remember ever seeing him miss. 12 guage slug 1 shot 1 kill. I would think one could also do the same with a pg and some practice. I do own one and although I don't enjoy shooting it I can hit a target out to about 30 yards or so. It makes a good truck gun for me cuz it'll work for short range and because I don't like it, it can get beat up.

One thing I'll add to the discussion is I much prefer a PGO with a shorter barrel the one in the video is a 16 inch and with my custom wood grip I can use a 14 inch barrel....in Canada we don't need an extra piece of paper from the govt for short barreled shotguns as long as the barrel is factory made and the overall length is greater then 26 inches.
Another thing for us canucks is we can't carry revolvers in the woods for bear protection so some choose shorter PGO's as they are less bulky to strap on a backpack when bushwacking....I don't bother with the extra weight as I've seen mostly mellow bears and only met a few grumpy ones in all my time living in bear country.
With bear encounters confidence goes along way and I don't be little anyone that feels the need for a firearm to help boost their confidence...

Ever seen Ol Rufus Hussy (spelling?) with his bean shooter?
That man could hit anything he wanted with a homemade slingshot and random stones......impressive instinctual shooting!
