The shotgun's exceptional durability is underscored by its successful completion of the US military torture test, enduring 3000 rounds of buckshot without failure, positioning it as a top-tier duty firearm.

This video provides a tour of the Scheels ammo section, highlighting the speaker's go-to ammunition choices for various calibers and purposes. It covers preferences for 9mm training and self-defense rounds, 5.56mm range ammo, and specific recommendations for .300 Blackout, particularly for suppressed use. The speaker also touches on shotgun shells and general philosophy for .380 and .22LR, while noting pricing inconsistencies and the benefits of bulk ammo purchasing.

This video showcases the initial live-fire testing of a unique custom firearm build: an Icon Marketing Group (IMG) 12-gauge upper receiver paired with a Palmetto State Armory (PSA) .308 lower receiver, featuring a Grey Market Research Super Safety. The builder, Jordan from PoorBoy Arms, demonstrates the process of testing various 12-gauge ammunition types, including birdshot and different velocity shells, while noting necessary modifications and potential cycling issues. The build is ultimately deemed a success despite minor ammunition-related malfunctions.

This video tests the suitability of several exotic 12-gauge shotgun loads for airsoft use, concluding none are safe. The tests involved a bouncy ball round, a glow stick round, and a cayenne pepper/airsoft BB round, all fired at a ballistic gelatin head. The instructor, demonstrating significant expertise in firearms and ballistics, clearly advises against using any of these for airsoft due to excessive force and potential for injury.
