A shotgun is the ultimate ammunition you need to fire multiple smaller bullets in a wide range. Pistols and rifles have low range shooting capacity as they send only one bullet at a time. Therefore, shotguns are gaining such popularity nowadays in the US market. However, you need to keep in mind buying the right kind of gun magazines for your prized possession.
Shotguns are used to fire bullets in close quarters to take down an intruder in the middle night or for bird hunting. It is an ultimate weapon you need to keep for self-defense. However, the terminologies used for a shotgun are different from regular pistols. The shotshells are called ‘gauge’ instead of caliber and shotguns usually fire ‘shots’ instead of bullets and are referred to as 00 buckshot, 01 buckshot, and so on depending on the size and number of shots that are fired.
The two most popular types of shotguns are 12 gauge and 20 gauge types. 12 gauge shotguns are usually bigger than 20 gauge shotguns and are the most popular in the US. In America, about 50% of total ammunition sales consist of shotgun sales. Therefore, make sure to lay your hands on the best shotgun variety to defend your property and loved ones.
There are usually two types of gun magazines available for guns in the USA:
· Detachable magazine: The extra ammunition can be removed from the firearm when it is not required simply by detaching the gun magazine by pulling it. The magazine is released from the firearm body by pressing a button or lever located on the left or right side of the firearm frame.
· Fixed magazines: These magazines need to be removed manually from the gun.
