How NOT to shoot a Short Barreled Shotgun

Don’t let this happen to you!

There are some really short guns in the world, and when you grab one with both hands, there is often a tendency to hold the gun farther forward than you should.

In this short video, Hickock45 gives some good advice about shooting short barrel guns, as he demonstrates with a sawed-off 12 gauge shotgun.

The cloud of meat (hot dog) spraying away from the muzzle could have been part of his finger, had he been less wise.

Even for those of us who know better, this is a good graphic reminder of what not to do.

Let’s be careful out there and have fun while being safety minded.
