DpdG hit it on the head. Hard to beat a shotgun w slugs around cars. Or a better up close and personal critter stopper for someone that knows what they're doing. Sadly, most LEOs don't know. There's maybe 10% (I'm being generous) of my agency that can run a shotgun like it should be. Our old SWAT Commander could run a shorty 870 like no one else I've seen. Was his weapon of choice instead of an MP-5.
