[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1349078, member: 14668"] Again, the advantage of this particular gun is not so much its overall capacity as it is the ability to switch between magazines and select ammunition appropriate to the task that poses less of a threat to neighbors or family behind nearby walls. Your man Joe Biden advocated "firing a couple of rounds off in the air" to scare away intruders. OK, if I am gonna do that then I wan to be shooting [I]birdshot[/I], not buckshot or slugs that are far more lethal and have far greater range. Birdshot is little tiny BB's that are only lethal to humans at room distance or less. Buckshot pellets are the size of small handgun bullets and are lethal well beyond 100 yards. Slugs are big solid chunks of lead that are used to stop grizzly bears in their tracks and are theoretically lethal out to several hundred yards.
