    Recommendations for quality, reasonable cost, reliable, ease of handling home defense shotgun and type of non-lethal load with potent stopping power. Prefer buttstock model. Thanks.
    Non-lethal means no stopping power. Pain compliance will not always work.

    If you have a problem killing someone who is inside your home then why have a shotgun?

    No one was dick head to you
    Slap some salv on that butt hurt and grow the phuck up or GTFO.

    People were legit helping a noob. The issues on reception of said help are yours alone.

    Stay around. This is a good place with good people.

    I interpreted it that *HE* was the proverbial "dick head" and the group as a collective didn't tolerate him.
    I can't see anywhere in this thread where he wasn't tolerated.

    Too bad I did not read this post earlier. I would call shotgun ranges in Houston or San Antonio and see when is their next demo days will be. I attended one with my daughter three weeks ago and it was awesome and knew what my next shotgun will be. We went to the demo day in Greater Houston Gun Club in Pearland, TX.

    Get some pepper spray. No rounds are Non leathal they are “less lethal”. If you’re not will to stop the intruder with lethal force to protect you and yours don’t buy guns.

    I don't agree because, as usual, a regular longtime TGT member was at it again; that particular person, it seems, once again has found it difficult impossible to be courteous:

    Well if your priorities are fixing drywall versus saving your own life or possibly your loved ones, then your priorities suck!

    Just about any moron can fix drywall!

    Dang I missed this thread. Allow this dickhead to offer a helpful opinion: peanut butter…

    Kidding. Ok, I view none lethal as a le only load. If cops get sent in for that limited amount of force that makes sense…if a person invades your home, attempts to rape a family member, or abduction attempt, none lethal isn’t required and yeah…don’t waste your time with none lethal. NL is definitely special application.

    Just train to take care of business.

    Well he isn't wrong, and op went from asking a beginner level question, to saying he got one of the highest end shotguns out there, in the span of what, a day or two?

    Ya.. um...since were disagreeing....

    @Axxe55 is a big boy who can defend himself if he sees fit but since you responded to me I suggest you reread the thread in context including all of his posts. Cherry picking one word or line from one post to make your point is less than genuine IMHO.

    No one was a dickhead to that guy. I dont know where some of pansy arses grew up but telling someone their priorities suck isnt being rude. Its rather tame.

    I'm sure if you try harder you can find some actual rudeness and discourtesy by all of us, this ain't it. This noob was using ignorance to make life and death decisions on little info and as asked people who know better and got good info in return. A little ribbing as the back and forth continued as all guys do.

    Oh, I cant do drywall and wasnt offended
    Lol.

    Christ all mighty.

    IMHO OFCOURSE.
