I’ve seen posted rules at clayshooting clubs that prohibit the use of “tactical” or “riot gun” shotguns. My home club does not but if you show up on the trap or skeet field with an 18-20” shotgun you will get sideways glances. The usual explanation is that the short barrels are too loud. In my view, I’m wearing hearing protection. If you want to get in some trigger time with a defensive shotgun, have at it.
I cannot agree that a shorter shotgun means a lack of muzzle control. Most of our competitors in cowboy action and Wild Bunch use shotguns with tubes shorter than “hunting guns”. We require muzzle control at all times. We don’t see a problem with the shotgun.
