Paul, I was trawling your site (as usual) and came across this little gem under shotgun ammo:

The 20-Gauge round once indirectly saved the life of a sergeant I had when I was in the Army. His wife was trying to kill him, and was trying to load 20-gauge shells into 12-gauge bird gun…he was able to get out of the house and call the police.
I sooooo want to know more about this, particularly just what in hell had he done!?

I don't know many of the details, but the one time I met SGT Rozar's wife, she seemed to me to be a bit high-strung, and he was always talking about marital difficulties.

She sounds a bit like my ex-wife and all he'd have needed to do to piss her off is breath...

E-7 I worked with at one point had the experience of having taught his wife to shoot a double action revolver for self-defense. Sometime later, during an argument, she grabbed his High Power (condition 1) and proceeded to level it at him and pull the trigger. Luckily, the DA revolver she had learned to shoot had no external safety in the mix, so despite pulling the trigger more than once there was no boom before he was able to wrestle it away from her.

Unfortunatly for me my girlfriends like sharp and pointy things better than they do guns. I say unfortunatly as at least one can shoot better while drunk and in high heals than alot of urban guys can sober...And they train more to use those sharp and pointy things.


As far as my favorite shotgun goes I've shot mostly mossbergs since i was a young teenager.
