So when I add my 28" barrel to go skeet shooting, has my shotgun become tactical?

I'm kidding by the way

I shot it yesterday, almost forgot how much fun slugs are through a light shotgun. I really like it though, super smooth. Sights are off though, I see lots of bruised shoulder in my future.

Great information here! many "tips" in posts!
A shotgun is a cery special weapon. It;s not just a point and spray item!
You actually need to learn to aim it, centering your shot colum.
There are specialists in all 3 phases and I think the Shotgun is horribly overlooked!
If possible get some real training to learn to play the instrument!
I tried teaching myself after years of hunting years ago. and found I DON'T know what I'm doing!
I shot make-believe courses aand just spread a lot of lead all over!
At my age and income. I fear that I'll never learn the art...
My home is still safe though because I can center enough buck to protect us. I still need training tho!
I have 2 guns, a home=brew 12ga 19" pumpgun and even better for "old" me a 20 ga sXS stoked with Buck.
Lower recoil and it fits me very well so I can hit well with it.
Too bad there's not a "Nitche" in 3 Gun for double Barrels eh?
