Model 12s are cool as shit.

Couldn't they also use drones for defense? Like a net of multiple drones to offset the 1 coming at them?

That's what they are using in Jersey for that ban.
Your shit will get smoked by another drone in the no fly zones

Longer term that's being furiously worked on, but it's currently like sending up a fighter to ram another fighter. Extremely inefficient when bullets and missiles and lazers exist.

Say your ignorance isn't blatant.
Weapon grade drone platforms are something you have never seen.
The shit we had in Desert Storm was very effective and there was no brutish "ramming"

The effective range of buckshot is nowhere near the distance drones fly.

Russian Telegram channels recently published footage showing Russian soldiers making DIY anti-drone ammunition by using the pellets taken from buckshot rounds and repurposing them to be used in normal 5.45x39mm rounds used in assault rifles.

That's certainly better than buckshot.

That statement makes no sense.

I looked into picking up 9mm snakeshot for hiking awhile back. Basically you have to be close enough to get bit for it to be effective.

Hah, please. Considering this is you trying to handle an AR,I doubt you'll do better with a shotgun.

They are loud. The rest of that is a hormone imbalance

Haha

That's clearly a kike, but lots of people are scared of guns because of our culture. Usually takes till about age 4 or 5 for a normal person to be mature enough to handle the loud bangs.

Chop an 870 or 500 off at 18".
