Split hairs much? You know damn well what he was talking about with the earlier comment, and don't pretend like you don't. Do you really think anyone here believed they were going to be able to hit someone with a shotgun without actually even pointing it?!

Shotguns were designed to be a shoulder fired weapon.

Spare me the education. I spent my last two years in the Marine Corps as a PMI (primary marksmanship instructor) teaching combat arms. I've got a pretty firm grasp on what shotguns were designed for and how to handle them, thanks.
