Once a mass shooting is committed by someone wielding a shotgun loaded up with buck shot and shooting people in close quarters those with an eye for gun control will look at us and our Parker shotguns. They won't care that ours are double barrels or antiques, they will be lumped in with all shotguns.

I believe the Germans hated the use of the Winchester M97 aka Trench gun, by the USMC in WWI they filed a diplomatic protest that it was an inhumane weapon of war. Kind of funny that came from the side who first used poison gas, but it showed how much they hated a Marine and his trench sweeper.

It was reported the M97 in slam fire mode with 00 buck would clear a trench faster than any of the full auto weapons of the time.
