and we should all realise that after an event shotguns would be the only weapon people will use against us their or loads of illegal guns out there?

That's exactly my thought. I know guys that I would refer to a decent guys, but some of them claim to have guns. Probably legal shotguns though. I also know people that are probably not decent, althought they are to me, and I'm rather certain a lot of them have guns too.

I don't care if I have a bow and arrow, I'd rather have a gun.

In the woods, your effective range with a bow and arrow will be your sight range, which....oddly enough.....will be the same sight range as a shotguns effective range. In summer the woods will be much greener, and a shotty will be the idea weapon.

A guy in the paras that I know said he always laughed at people that suggested taking a sniper rifle into the jungle, because you can only see a few meters infront of your nose. A shotgun is ideal for wooded areas.
