Shotguns loaded with buck or slugs are not easy for "most" people to shoot well,

Sure they kick more, but that's not the whole story. Just about everyone I know has not only fired a shotgun, they have some experience hitting moving targets with a shotgun. Only a very small minority or people I know have any experience at all with automatic rifles.
They kick more but just about everyone knows how to use one in rural America. If I tossed a full-auto AK to a random person in my area, chances are slim that they would be able to hit anything with it.
I've been shooting shotguns since I was big enough to pick one up, but I could count my full-auto experiences on my fingers and toes without running out of digits. I sure know which one I would be more comfortable handling in a stressful situation.
