The Must-Have Gun for Your Truck: Unveiling the Ultimate Shotgun

[@notsosilentmajority1]

A shotgun is the best all around firearm you can have. It can be accurate a lot further than people think and it's awesome for close quarter work. The different shells make it a jack of all trades and you can load your shells with just about anything your imagination can come up with. They are very easy to reload as well for the SHTF scenarios we hear so much about.

and ya can miss close

[@hellenthefraudkeller3831]

​@@scott7684you can miss with any gun. What's your point?

An AR-15 is the best all around firearm for sure. You can shoot close and far and carry wayyyy more ammo

I've never been a supporter of the truck gun concept for most people, but I have always thought a shotgun made the most sense in that role. And as a guy who LOVES shotguns, I can say with some confidence that the 1301 is about the best general-purpose shotgun a guy could ask for.

[@hansblitz7770]

It's a powerful boomstick and heavy plated shot does well on automotive materials. Still shouldn't be a first choice in a long gun to keep in a vehicle. Think about worst case scenarios. The Mohammads can pull a San Bernardino at any moment, Lil' Slim and his carload of Lil' Gs can "pop off" at any time, firing wildly like a Liberian rebel, usually preferring Draco AKs "got that choppa" None of these scenarios is anyone with a mag fed semi auto rifle going to say "darn!

Thank you for putting this up. I’ve been professing the shotgun for a truck gun/get home survival gun for twenty years. It will defend you, feed you, big game, small game, people, etc. I have a local travel AR for a truck gun, but for traveling outside one day of foot travel away from home it’s a 1301. One chest rig of shells with 7.5s, 4s, 2s, 00s, & slugs. I can kill and eat anything in North America with that load out.

[@agates9383]

590 12ga Shockwave with a Streamlight forend - compact, powerful, good capacity - excellent with the rubber bumper to allow use of the Aguilla shorty rounds - load it up with slugs and you hold a lot of fire power

[@LastAmericanOutlaw]

I love the 590 shockwave, I need to own one

[@notsosilentmajority1]

I have the same home protection setup of 12 gauge Shockwave and Streamlight 1000 lumen built-in forend and you're right, it's the best. Add the side saddle and you're really good to go. I have the original Shockwave so I have the adapter bumper for shorty rounds as well but Mossberg makes the 590S models for full size shotguns and for the Shockwave firearm that allows you to shoot the shorty rounds without the adapter. I've been thinking of buying one and probably will. The best part is that you can load 1.75, 2.75 and 3 inch shells all at once and not worry about an adapter, they will all cycle.

[@agates9383]

[@d7dun1010]

There are time, most times, that I like to have something more than a handgun. While anything can happen, you never know and/or just in case, anything that I can reasonably imagine with my real world threat assessment, the fighting shotgun will serve me well. There are times when an AR or AK might be better but at the threat distance increases, the better chance for me to leave the area and dial 911 and let the Po-Lice come out and handle the matter. They get paid to do it and I have already paid for the house call or their roadside assistance. When the bell rings for real, fight with what you have and make it work! Back before recorded time, it was sometimes said it will do if you will do. I am a major fan of the fighting shotgun and always appreciate any like content.

Awesome shotgun for sure and just updated to the mod 2 version. The A300 patrol is pretty sweet too, but inside my house where they are safe!

[@jwilliams3170]

Been running a truck shotgun for a couple years now. Had one on patrol at a previous department and ended up with more training on it than on rifles so I don’t feel undergunned. Rifles are great though and if I can trick somebody in admin to put me through a patrol rifle class, maybe I’ll switch to a truck rifle.

[@LastAmericanOutlaw]

​@@judasblewit It's when you cut the shell right around the bottom of the brass until there is just a thin strip holding the shell together, so when you fire it the whole hunk of shotgun shell fires out, keeping all the shot inside it. It's a poor man's slug.

[@m.loughlin1915]

Get that cylinder bore barrel equipped with choke tubes and keep it either IC or even Modified for extended range. As an old AA class Skeet and Trap shooter, I can attest to the fact that at least some degree of choke is an improvement over Cylinder. Even a Skeet choke at only .005" constriction makes a decided difference for the better, in pattern consistency.

[@bigbadjohnpesek9894]

Here’s what I do. It’s my version of the “New York Reload”. In addition to my handgun on my person, I have an 870 clone (bead sighted) loaded with buckshot and my beretta patrol shotgun (ghost rings) loaded with slugs. Both have side saddles on them and there are about ten esstac shotgun cards filled with buck or slugs within easy reach on a combat belt with a drop pouch. Also a couple of box of birdshot for hunting season. Having different styles of shotguns allow me to know immediately how they’re loaded. There’s never a round in the chamber of the stores shotguns btw as most are not drop safe. Makes me think they probably wouldn’t be safe in an automobile accident either.
