I can't even hit the target, just throw the unused bullets at the threat and run away.

I can draw, chamber, and hit a target in 1 second though.

How? You'd have to be the flash, and you don't have that kind of agility anymore.

I hope you're an 18 year old girl using that word.

It wasn't 3 feet. It was yards, but thank you!

Just recently, every Saturday for the past month (and I'm going to continue to go) I've been before with a friend but it's much different having an instructor shoot with me for 30 minutes -1 hour. I learn much more.

Just picked up a well taken care of remington 1100 magnum for birds primarily but can put cylinder choke to shoot deer if like also.

Why not just use a slug? Probably more accurate no?

I'm not a hunter (but fairly deep in the gun world), but some states have very specific hunting laws regarding what you can use.

Fair enough - never considered that. Up here, I believe they don't care if you use a slug or shot, but you can't use rifles unless you head farther north. But in general, shotguns are ok, due to the lower range of the shot / slug.

That being said, I've just learned that apparently I cannot have more than 3 shells in the shotgun if I'm hunting. I'm not sure if I can argue that I'm not hunting and it is predator defense until I get to my hunting spot...say for a case where you have to walk through woods to get to pond/lake for some ducks.

We'll see...depend on whether I'm going alone or not. If I'm alone, I'll probably load for bear just in case and fight the ticket if I get caught. But if there's at least one other person, then between six legal shells, I don't see any issues.

That being said...I might not even have time to pump more than three anyways...have no idea.

The improved cylinder choke allows slug? Thats what I would use for deer with this platform.

I guess I misinterpreted - sounded like you intended to use buckshot, and I just thought that because of the talk about the choke (which I've always associated with shot / patterns, and having no real bearing on slugs...unless you use too tight a choke). My bad.

Barrel is threaded so needs to have choke threaded in for use to avoid damage even if it's a cylinder choke(no constriction) to shoot slugs.

Thought I would share my favorite rifle with the group. Steyr Model M with Zeiss Victory and Steyr matched detachable mounts. This gun has been modified by a Steyr master gunsmith and fitted with a luxus set trigger. It is an unbelievable tac driver and by far my favorite. I have owned it over 20 years and have lost track on the number of deer it has harvested. Have a good night!

There is nothing like a hammer forged barrel.

I bot a HK VP9SK...best pistol I've ever fired. I took my Springfield XDS to the range along with my HK...couldn't hit shit with it. Might as well have thrown the gun at the target.
Busted out the HK...like I was a fkn hero. $$$ well spent. Too bad it's collecting dust in the glovebox of my other car.
