Documentary Films: History of the Shotgun\r
\r
Guns are generally perceived as weapons but they can also be used for recreation, law enforcement, military, hunting, sporting, and defense-as in the case of shotguns.\r
\r
Shotguns are designed to fire a lot of small pellets and they can have a slug barrel that can fire single projectiles per shot or smooth bore barrels that can fire multiple shots. Shotguns are also charerized by their high stopping power for short-range shooting compared to rifles and handguns. And since they are easy to aim, they are useful firearms for beginner marksmen.\r

Shotgun guides: get to know the types\r
\r
Looking at shotgun guides allows you to select the right type of shotgun that you can use for whatever purpose. Shotguns include types for ion including semi-automatic or autoloading, break ion or hinged, and pump ion or slide. They can also be classified according to features like sawn-off and double-barreled. Here is a quick overview of these types:\r
\r
Hinged: Requires manual shell insertion in the chamber and the shells are ejected when ion is opened.\r
\r
Autoloading: Reloads, extrs, and fires automatically when the trigger is pulled with very little recoil.\r
\r
Slide: Shells are loaded through the slide and they are extred when the slide moves backwards to open the ion.\r
\r
Sawn-off: With customized designs, the barrel is shortened to hide the ion but it fires 2/3 of the distance that is common to typical shotguns and is significantly lighter. \r
Double-barreled: With 2 barrels arranged either on top of the other or side by side, you can fire it twice with one ion as long as the two shots are aimed at one target and taken together.\r

Buying tips from shotgun guides\r
\r
A 12-gauge shotgun is ideal for higher versatility, more power, and for use in different shooting ivities. If you want to use your shotgun in wet conditions, choose one that has a stock with anodized metal or a synthetic choke for water resistance. To make your shotgun look nicer, a wood choke with a good finish should be enough.\r
