I was asked recently if I shot all the shotguns I bought, and it made me curious. What do you use your shotguns for?

Well I have a few about 35 give or take, and yes I have shot them all!!! Goose, Duck, Clays,Trap, Skeet and the Redneck Quarry and an old car or two. I have one safe with just shotguns, I am always fascinated with the quality of the furniture that's on some of the older ones. I like to open up the safe, light up the room, and go down memory lane with some of them wipe em down and hold em. And can't wait to go to the range with the others.....now I am going through the Tactical Stage..... As the collection grows!!!

I want to get a practical shotgun, I only have a tactical one. I'm interested in clays and bird hunting.

There's a reason I give mine female names.

Exactly what I was thinking. It is a home defense, clay target, hunting, zombie killing tool!

I admit the poll wasn't thought out very well.....that's what I get for doing it when I was hungry and tired.

I have nine shotguns and each one serves multiple purposes.

I used to Duck hunt with my 870 but now its mostly clays. A turkey shoot now and again is fun.

Aside from home defense I use mine to destroy shit when the opportunity presents itself! Next item on the destruction list is my Dell computer that crashed the day before Thanksgiving. I'm thinking 00 buck or rifled slug. Maybe a little of both! Maybe a lot of both!
