Not apologizing after he shoots you.

I’m sorry – I shouldn’t have put my face in front of your gun.

Gotta love that – Imagine if YOU had shot someone and when the police showed up you told them “come back tomorrow and I’ll talk to you about it then”. Not only does he get away with that crap but actually gets the guy he shot to apologize for being in the way.

I’m 50 years old, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and weigh 165#

What would be a good shotgun for me?

I don’t want some cheap crap as I’m thinking of small game hunting and skeet shooting.

A 12 gauge is just fine. Use 2 3/4 inch shotshells. The recoil isn’t a big deal as long as you stay away from the 3 inch stuff. I’m 6 foot 220 pounds and dont shoot the 3 inch cartridges……

There are a couple of different philosophys regarding shotguns……. For skeet / trap small game some prefer an over and under or side by side double barrel shotgun…..

Others prefer the semi-auto for more than 2 follow up shots….
