?Gauge ... 20, not 12. 75% of the knock down power for alot less recoil. This thing is slung under the rifle barrel.?
M4
75% - please show me how you arrived at this figure? I don?t have a 20 but I have a 410, I use it for grouse and rabbit. My 12 with buck is for cougars and slugs for bears.
Shaka
?slug, shot or fleshettes ... double aught buckshot mostly. And a few of those rounds used to bust locks, the ones the police use.?
M4 no comment
Shaka
?barrel length ... gotta fit under the M16 barrel, just like a 40mm does on a M203.?
M4
short barrel = low muzzle velocity = low KE
your short 20 will make a nice rodent killer.
Shaka
?single shot or magazine feed ... pump action.?
M4
Even more dead weight hanging off the end of my rifle. You could make it heaver if you went with auto, you know.
Shaka
?extra weight ... No different than what a Grenadier has to deal with today.?
M4
Putting a grenade through a doorway at 100m is different from going through that same doorway to clear a room, weight does matter.
Shaka
?And it will solve the problem of having the wrong weapon (shotgun or rifle) at the wrong time.?
M4
Or cause confusion over which trigger to pull.
