This lets me know that you have never experienced a long term shot gun owner. Shotguns do not explicitly fire only shot or slugs. They never have. It is actually quite easy to tailor shells to a target. Someone with fishing line, a soldering iron, and a box of cheap pellets can make a net that will take out all commercial drones (or any of the 4 propeller style). And on top of that, there are widely available (albeit expensive) commercially available anti-drone shells. If you look in all of the footage of Russians being killed via drone, they all have a rifle with some kind of optic. These are very, very bad at shooting an agile flying target. Every hunter on the entire planet can tell you that. You know what's great at that? A shotgun with the appropriate gauge and shell. Look, it isn't that hard to hunt birds at over 50 yards (that's 150' as you so inaccurately put things in the range estimate) with a solid appropriate turkey gun. You have displayed a large amount of ignorance here.

I would love to see the Rube Goldburg Shotgun you think you've invented and watch you try to fire it (from an extremely safe distance). Please post that shit to YouTube and share it, because god damn dude. Fishing line and cheap pellets shoved down the barrel of a shotgun for the purpose of butterfly netting an MQ-1 Predator?

Lolz. Lmao, even.

You have displayed a large amount of ignorance here.

Happy Hunting!

Please stop, you're embarrassing yourself. Yes, you can jam all that stuff in a shotgun shell and make a crude anti-drone shot.

No, it's not going to be an MQ-1 Predator (which is bigger than many WWII fighter planes), but nobody said that, either. Most of the drones in Ukraine are the size of a DJI Phantom.

Most of the drones in Ukraine are the size of a DJI Phantom.

The US manufactured drone weapons that have been coming over for the last two years are significantly larger than the DJI Phantom.

Stop digging. That's completely beside the point.
