A touch of a revival. Yesterday, we had a mixed match - handgun, handgun + rifle, or classic three gun.
A nice newbie young man or two were trying out 12 gauge pumps.
Things I noticed:
1. They did miss quite a bit shooting birdshot at steel. At three gun distances, they shoot in front, left or right. Thus, the idea that you can't miss - well, we know that wasn't true.
2. Manipulation was so very slow. Loading, second shots, etc.
Point is that for a novice, the shotgun isn't a wonder weapon.
