[QUOTE="AETERNAM REX, post: 67587, member: 3949"] Consider this... A couple of years into a civil war, ammo will be hard to come by. Unlike rifle and pistol rounds, shotgun shells are much easier to re-manufacture. So long as you have primers and powder, you can reuse them. Arguably, you can even re-manufacture primers, and can produce home-made powder, or the entire shell if you have the right tools and materials. I suppose you can even make a shotgun itself with a metal shop. And you can shoot just about anything out of a shotgun that will fit into a shell...including rocks if you had to. Cut shells and wax rounds are more or less slugs, will go through a vest, explode upon entry of a chest cavity(or whatever)and are also easy to make. Shot is more suited for taking out moving aerial targets like small UAV's and foul(food) too. In short, it is because shotguns are a simple, effective, versatile, practical, and easy to use weapon. It is essentially a simple hand cannon. Oh, and another thing....shotguns are antique, ...perfect for a time traveler as they have been made since the late 1700's. If you were to go back a couple of hundred years, you can still find ammo. [/QUOTE]
