I have a number of shotguns tactically placed in my home to provide a depth of defense. While I prefer pump and semiauto shotguns for the defense role, the tactical O/U is a novel, interesting, and if properly used, effective tool. It is certainly more easily handled in confined spaces, due to the relative shortness of the action. If one were to install a carrier of extra shells on the butt stock, it could be considerably more effective.....if the user practiced speed loading drills.

Call me biased, but when I can buy a short Mossberg with more rounds than that, or a nice Saiga with a 19 inch barrel and 20 round drum mags, I think a double is a little impractical. Unless, of course it's cheap enough to buy a bunch of them.

I'm still waiting for that Russian AA-12.

Food for thought - I've read that in many of the "terror" battles we've fought, the enemy have dozens of different weapons prestaged. Rather than reload, they just grab another.

That's why I have more than one myself.

Roger that, Cecil..... Lots of weapons in lots of places, not to mention the principal and back-up pieces that are always on my person.

Just got my AK with the telescoping stock. Sweet. Raining here.
