Hand load ;)I prefer to knife my victims...plus it saves a sh*tload on ammunition. Have you seen the price of quality ammo these days?!
My old lady takes care of that.....and she tells me those rounds are "incapacitating" without Level 4 safety glasses.....Hand load ;)
This is probably true if taken as a whole. When looking it individual agencies, it's a different story. The FBI (crim side, not FCI side), DEA, ATF, USSS, USMS, and HSI agents I have met (and I have met a lot) have all put their cuffs on criminals - I deliberately used the plural form of the word. Once you get into some of the smaller agencies and OIGs, not so much. As for seeing someone shot, the number drops quite a bit, but once again, higher among the agencies who actually work the street (DEA, ATF, & some FBI and USMS, in particular).And most federal agents certainly have never seen someone shot, hell most have never actually used their handcuffs.
The price is no lightweight either...$3,000 stripped....cool for zombies and watermelons though if you could borrow one.You have any idea how heavy that mofo would be?

Just glancing at that Fostech, it looks like an AK action to me.It would be cool to mess around with some of the AK style shotguns but I've heard they can be quite finicky(I've never shot one). The Fostech in the video does have a gas adjust valve....
I dry practice stance/shoulder and cheek weld much more than I actually get to shoot. However I've learned the importance of correctly using the recoil to run the pump and keep follow up shots from rising(not as easy as it sounds at first)...the range is the best/only way to learn that...A solid shoulder and firm racking motion are a must.....Funny thing is I've lost all fascination with the pistol grip type shotguns since and the few times I fired one just doesn't feel natural to me.Youd be surprised how much less reliable that pump can become, short stroking, getting the shell stuck under the elevator but not latched in the tube etc.
Lots of LE agencies use the Remington 870. Very easy weapon to get proficient with and phenomenally reliable - I am sure they have their issues, but I personally never saw a problem with one that was not user error. Unlike the shotguns described in some previous posts, however, much smaller capacity. Saw some smaller folks occasionally have difficulty with the recoil if they were not careful.Im also a fan of using things that cops and .mil have tested and found to be reliable.
Good man on the dry firing... if you ain't doin' that, you ain't training.I dry practice stance/shoulder and cheek weld much more than I actually get to shoot.

I despise pistol grip shotguns.Funny thing is I've lost all fascination with the pistol grip type shotguns since and the few times I fired one just doesn't feel natural to me.
Sure. Mossberg, Remington, Winchester, Savage. All good.Lots of LE agencies use the Remington 870. Very easy weapon to get proficient with and phenomenally reliable - I am sure they have their issues, but I personally never saw a problem with one that was not user error.
