My main point is; why would joe public need an auto firing gun?
Or a semi auto either. There isnt a lot of game that charges the
individual shooting at them so they need a semi auto to survive.
In the case of birds, you may want to shoot more than one.
So, use a shotgun. And please, snip unnecessary text in your responses.

That is still going to be one bird at a time unless you believe that
bull**** that a shotgun fills the air with a cloud of pellets and you
can't miss.
I can take you out to a skeet range and dispell that in about 30
seconds.


Â* It'd take less time for me ... I've never been any good with a
shotgun . The bolt action 20 ga I got for my 14th birthday has had less
than 5 boxes of shells fired thru it in over 50 years . Probably closer
to 3 .


For some reason it was always easy for me. I can hit stuff moving
easier than things sitting still it seems.
Maybe I don't have the patience to aim but quick pointing comes
naturally.
