The Single-Barrel, Break-Open Shotgun

[Talon]

Mort.Our pump and semi auto's have the magazine tube crimped to restrict the capacity.It's not just a wooden dowel .In a shtf scenario it is possible to de restrict a gun,though obviously that's up to the individual to do if and when it's appropriate.I certainly don't advocate anyone altering a gun's capacity while the rule of order still applies.

Speaking of reload speed I could always load my Mossberg 500 and my Auto 5 faster than i could my over/under.Load a cartridge and rack it (the Auto 5 had a speed loader).Load your other two cartridges.Fire 1 or 2 and then slip another 1 or 2 in.That way the gun is never empty.I always found it much faster than having to break a double barrel,regardless if it has ejectors or not.
