was talking with some friends and coworker and they're of the opinion we can get them easily. So i wonder, do any of you actually have one? i always enjoy listening to non firearm owners talking about guns.....could listen to it all day.
interested to know.

I have a severely smashed right shoulder that really hates the shotgun. I'd love to apply for a semi on medical grounds. But as you can only do so for competition purposes of which I have no interest, and would not be able to use it for hunting anyway it seems pretty pointless.

I've heard those stories but I can't see the relevance. The Cat C shotgun is only for clay competition, which is certainly harder on the body than any other shooting I can think of. It would certainly cause more pain than one or two shots at a deer with a .338 Lapua. Even .50BMG competition is usually only a handful of shots, usually with a muzzle brake.

Clays aren't bad, but shoot a hundred or two in an afternoon with a smashed shoulder and I certainly wouldn't be able to drive home afterwards...or for a week or two.

I've seen screw-in ones but they seem to be designed to fit single-barrel guns rather than doubles that most Aussies use.

But I suppose as it's not just 1 projectile going straight through but a bunch of balls they might get jammed, even destroy the vents of a muzzle break, or at the minimum have extra resistance
