[QUOTE="ttown, post: 2219982, member: 2114"] And I'd be more concerned that someone with an auto would have an AD. I've seen it in the field with people new to shotguns or don't shoot much and why many people want to buy thier kids/wifes a single shot or pump the first gun and not any semi-auto. I'm surprised that you haven't had to tell someone to point the gun in a safe direction, many people with autos have to be reminded THIS GUN IS STILL LOADED . Under stress a lot of crazy stuff happens. A home owner isn't a LEO and if your chasing down the BG like your one instead of protecting your life your at the wrong school IMO. Grab the gun in your bedroom and hold your ground they won't be coming after you after the first shot. Semi's are always more senstive to ammo than a good pump trust me on this one. Rather a handgun or shotgun you need to make sure that your select ammo ejects or you have a single shot. Not so much on a revolver or pump but you need to test this too. I've just seen too many autos not eject some brands of ammo, in fact just had this happen this weekend in Sand Spring while shooting trap. Found out real quick it didn't like Wincherster value pack ammo FTE while I had some Federal value pack it loved as well as reloads that was fine. I thought my new shotgun broke after the first shoot until I stated looking at it. In all the years I've been at ranges or the field shooters that don't shoot or hunt very often the safety or failing to put a round in the chamber tops the list. Once you get off the range and get to the field with rain, snow, sand, dust, weeds, etc and lot of crap can get in or on your gun while hunting all day in the elements a gas operated auto is more likely to have issue than a pump not that a HD shotgun will be going though that.
