Sunday With Blackthorn - Today We Discuss How Your Shotgun Patterns At Various Distances - And - Why Shotguns Are Really Not Too Long To Use In Your Home For Defense

 In this first video Clint Smith Talks about the need to Take your Shotgun to the range , and see how it and the Ammunition you're using work at varying ranges. This is especially important for knowing where all those pellets are going and how big the pattern is. At close ranges such as you find in  the average middle class home, the shot you use use will tend to cluster closely together at 10 yards or less. Meaning you will need to aim and not just point it in the general direction.

 

 


                                                                                                                                                                    In this second short video Clint shows why the much touted concept of how a Shotgun, as well as even  a short barrelled  Carbine, is no good for use inside the home because they're too long and can hung up while moving through the house if their is an intruder. Allow me at this point to refer back to the Video I previously posted about how "clearing" your house is not the best idea when you have "unwanted guest" in your home at Zero Dark Thirty.
