A slug out of a 20 guage shotgun is still twice the power of a 44 Magnum.

Brock Howell says:

From the videos I've seen a 20 gauge shotgun is more than capable for self-defense….the biggest knock on the 20 gauge from my experience is the lack of shell options AND I'd say 20 gauge is slightly more expensive (even online). That being said, the 20 gauge doesn't get enough love IMO.

Ronald Howdeshell says:

Good stuff! I would love to see some ballistics.

Blue Skies from Florida, I'd enjoy a video on 16 gauge, thanks in advance.

tjmooremusic says:

Recoil is vastly different in semi auto shotguns. 12 isn't too bad, 20 in semi auto is fantastic, and can pretty much be shot all day long.

Long as it’s a mossy 20g/Fanny pack 🦌🐌 cheap 🛻gun get it done but should be paired with🔫/MCK as should both but 12g>20g solo better off low recoil 12g tighter/less penetration but standard power lead #4 21p/9p00(CQB) Brass 8P 00/Flight C /Super X HP🐌(mid 🎯) are best also classic limbsavers +sports wrap 😴perfect for 14’hogue/classic ATI tactical collapse stocks take the 🐚holder off side Velcro it also one for the SGA stocks

dbelex says:

#4 buck is a great self defense round.

Perfect outro. As far as gell tests I would be very interested in what 3.5 inch double B does at 5,10,15 and 25 yards

levi robin says:

Did you notice smith and wesson updated the regular polymer 2.0? They have the full five inch now with and optic cut and trigger like what they have in the metal frame. Think you can review that as well? I really want one in FDE

Drip N Rip says:

I definitely want to see gel test with both buckshot and slugs…..

Love it! I've bagged more teal and greenheads with my 870 20 Gauge, then the 12 gauge. Why? not sure, but love that 870 3" mag Vent rib. Sold it, and bought it back. Home defense @ 10 yards…you have a mess on your hands. It is what it is! This Alaskan boy, came from Iowa. Keep up the great vids.

RowdyRon says:

How about a brief discussion about 410? Seems like it would be a likely candidate for this comparison.

Chris Reinhart says:

Handguns put holes in things.
Rifles put holes thru things.
Shotguns remove entire pieces from things.

Take a video about this , The world is now ruled by one community of people, the world Satanic elite, you can also call them the committee to meet the Antichrist and prevent the 2nd coming of Jesus, Trump called them the deep state, at the moment it consists of about 10,000 people, the main ones there are Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Windsors, Baruchs, they, their ancestors, descendants and other people who enter there have the mark of Lucifer, which, if they bring the antichrist and do not allow the 2nd coming, they will receive eternal life after the x hour, and the rest of humanity, for all the time that they have lived, they won't get anything, so all people should know about the existence of a world government
