    Our store has a couple. Silly for sure, but it gets worse.. most don't realize that it wont fire if its pointed downward, towards the floor for example. It has a bizarre safety system, for sure.

    I look at that shotgun and can only think how pimps back in the 60's would have liked it.



    Won't fire pointed down! rules it out for snake country.

    I have thought about getting the Stoger Double Defense or the like strictly as a under the seat truck gun, especially if it breaks down due to compactability. If it gets stolen or damaged I woundn't be out my 590 or 870.

    A Mossberg 500 is cheaper

    And cannot break down to conceal beneath my compact truck's seats.

    Touche. Even though I did once have one with an overfolding stock that was really compact (don't judge, I was young and stupid).

    Its LOP appears a bit too long, but I can see it as a viable home defense weapon, certainly not a "tactical".

    Put a decent white light on it, load it appropriately and it would suffice for most homeowners.

    It could also serve double duty as a hunting shotgun in extreme close cover.

    The screw-in chokes could make for some interesting combos, too.

    sure it could work for that, but why? a pump-action is cheaper and holds more shells and most have a ton of aftermarket support so getting the right stock or mounting optics or a light are no trouble.
