Title: Episode #101 - Long Guns for Self Defense
Post by: Marshal Halloway on April 09, 2008, 03:41:18 PM

Basics of Long Guns for Self-Defense
In recent years both shotguns and rifles have begun taking their places in the armed civilian's self-defense armory. But new tools require new strategy, tactics and training, and the worldfamous GUNSITE Academy is up to the task. GUNSITE's top instructors take us through the basics and beyond on mastering long guns for self-defense.

"long guns for self defense"
Please note that the Remington 870 shotgun was introduced in 1950. Therefore it is unlikely that it was found in police cars in the 20's and 30's and has not existed since the "dawn of time." ( that would have been applicable to the 1897 Winchester)
P.S. like the show!!

That depends on your perspective, Many on here think that 1950 was only slightly after the last ice age.

All right I think it is about time we try and get Shooting Gallery extended to an hour show.  I am going on the Outdoor Channel web site and send them an email asking them to make Shooting Gallery an hour show.

The episode that aired yesterday 04/10/08 had a segment with a company that produces sights for quicker target acquisition.  It was called AK  Sights?? or something I think they featured a Glock an AR and a Revolver. I would like the to have the correct name of that company. 
 
Thank you
