THe prfessonal hunter is still alive and well. They are now just called Hunting Guides. And back in the day, so game was hard to raise on a farm. So you had to get a professional hunter to do all the work.


And a shotgun for any tactical situations is both good and bad. A Remington 870 is the best master key in the world. ALso at least one man of a SWAT Team carries a shotgun. A shotgun is good for police work and close quartters combat for the military. The main problem is the ammunition capacity. You're talking about somehting like 7-8 rounds of ammunition. The standard battle rifle holds 20-30 rounds of ammunition. Also the pistol holds more ammunition. But when it comes to certain things. The Shotgun beats them all. Hence why I keep a customized Remington 870 for home defense. Also with a AR-15 and a Customized Springfield Armory 1911A1 pistol.

I want to get a Saiga-12S Exp-01-030. I have no idea if IzhMash will sell me one, though, since it's meant for special forces and police. Should be legal in the states. If I ever get it I'm keeping it loaded with 3" 00 buckshot and I'm getting an Aimpoint Comp M3. It is a pretty nice shotgun, though cheap compared to western designs. 8-round detachable magazines, Kalashnikov reliability and durability, comfortable AK-74M type folding stock (unlike the Saiga-12K it can fire while the stock is folded), and a built-in Picatinny rail.

If I am unable to procure one of those, I think the next best option would be a Benelli M3T with similar optics. And of course, the M3 can fire all sorts of things since you can switch it over to pump-action any time.

I've done that salute too much today , my god ......no offense sirs .....

what about the old model 12 trench shotguns ? they were great shotguns could take out 3 guys at once .... and its a pump ashotgun so you can fire on the run , though ammo is a big issui , but in close quarters combat , the shotgun is great wide open area , not so great ....

Yeah, that's why I have it. It looks like something that a SWAT team would use.

There are legal but they are no longer made. The company that made them was purchased by remingotn and that firearm was discontinued. You can still get them for a good price at a gun show. They are pretty cool. 5-7rd magazine, AK action, Rifle type stock and design. I want one but I've yet been able to find one for a cheap price.
