With all the assault weapon ban talk, how much could the shooter have accomplished with a 12 gauge pump action shotgun using buck shot, seems like in a crowded room it would do as much or more damage against an unarmed mass of people?

Lower capacity and slower reloading


It could do some damage though

They sell big magazines for shotguns too..similar to AR and it would be devastating with a buckshot load.

Loaded buckshots with a fast load capacity would shred everything in a crowded area.

Saiga makes a shotgun that will fire with an extended magazine and also can be fire with a drum magazine.

So yes, it is very very possible to shot a ton of shells out of a shotgun in a short amount of time

He could load up a truck with fertilizer and gasoline.

He could use a Glock 19 and Walther 22 (like VT)

He could use Dragons breath and burn people up.

He could use some pressure cookers.

Lots of choices that don't involve "assault" rifles.

I've been told there's no point in banning high capacity guns Bc even a screwdriver can be deadly

More kids die from buckets each year than guns.

That is a fact BTW.

Once you have a soft target like that successfully subdued, you can pretty much execute them at will, just like Paris.

Remember, the progs have taught people not to fight back and to wait for help to arrive.

That may be true - but you'd need a big fricking bucket to kill 50 people at once.

Yeah I think they use guns for the political effect of it.

They'll use bombs when they get serious.

How many "baws" do you think were at a club like that?


He didn't pick the leather and latex bear club for a reason.

Does anyone on the OT realize buckshot really doesn't spread that much at a 10-20 ft. range?
I doubt the killer was making many 50' shots in that club.
