All tubes. Remington 870, Mossberg (I used my 590A1), several Beretta 1301s, and I think I saw a Benelli Supernova.
FWIW, Tom didn't seem a fan of the new breed of magazine fed pump actions. And I don't think anyone even mentioned a Saiga or the like).

Thanks for the info! With recent political events making defensive carbines a soon-to-be endangered species, I will go out in a limb and say that we may see more shotgun classes being offered in the future.
Edited to add: did the class talk about optics like an Aimpoint in a defensive shotgun?(good idea, not really needed, etc?) Res dots are profoundly helpful for a carbine in my experience, but I am not sure if the same benefit applies to a shotgun. I am thinking that the small spread of the buckshot would make an optic a benefit, but would the "point shooting" nature if a shotgun reduce the effect of the benefit?
