It's actually not even a real 8 gauge, it's just a movie workup of one. They thought a real one would be too heavy for the actor to hold as long as it takes to actually film the scenes.

I don't think my Parker DH 8 bore with 36" barrels would be my bar room brawl gun of choice...

Well Don, if it had sixteen inch barrels it would be pretty effective.

Calvin, I watched a show on one of the gun channels where barroom self defense was demonstrated. An innocent was attacked by a drunk with a broken bottle. The demonstrator showed how to take a knife out of your pocket and sever the tendons of the arm holding the bottle. All the while there was a perfectly good barstool within reach, which any country boy would recognize as the preferred weapon in a bar fight.

A large glass beer mug (the kind with a handle) makes a fine feather duster when somebody wants to get a little too rowdy. I saved myself suffering a knife stroke or two with one back in the day and I assure you I'll never forget it.
In these days of most bars now having pint glasses instead, I've gone back to carrying a leather blackjack though my old faithful one is much the worse for wear. Anybody know where a man could buy such an instrument in these modern times? I've been looking to find a replacement for quite awhile but without success. DLH
