Ridiculously mis-aimed marketing – a new gun full of silly gadgets to market to kids being brought up to be squeamish about guns to the point where they will ruin lives, relationships and careers to be without them? Did they really think men with buns buy guns, let alone ones straight out of a video game? |

Don't worry, there are enough people out there wanting tacticool guns that there will be a good market for it. |

@Murvihill: Yes, just not the one they were trying for. |

What's the point of the dual bolt on electronic sight for a shotgun? Ain't the shotgun all about spray and pray? What valued added is a fancy sight? Oh yeah. To make the owner feel important. |

Machine-pistols are for spray-and-pray. Shotguns are meant to target a specific object. Most will have some sort of sight. Slugs can have significant range and will necessitate a higher-precision sight; many dedicated slug guns will have scopes. Putting them on fore-and-aft, though, is excessive and will not make it very practical. It's probably like that to demonstrate what you can mount. |

I did a tactical shotgun course at Fort Bragg while in the Marine Corps, you can miss at seven yards with a shotgun. It's about knowing your weapon and what it can do. I've skipped shotgun pellets under cars to hit targets on the other side. Shotguns are really a misunderstood weapon, so if you don't have a lot of experience with them you really shouldn't comment on them. |

Certainly don't rely on video games for accurate information. |

There are states that have hunting seasons where shotguns with slugs are appropriate. A good sight would be needed for that. |
