In this video we discuss the pros and cons of shorty shot shells. 1.75" shot shells reduce recoil and can be of benefit to some. At the same time, it's critical to them them in your specific shotgun to confirm they will function without issue. Support us...gofund.me/70980c74
This shot shell may be exactly what you're looking for, or you may discover the limitations of this cartridge.
We belive they may be a good option for certain situations. However, we would not choose them as the primary shot shell from basic home protection or personal protection.

The rubber feed ramp plug is called “OPSol Mini-Plug 2.0 Flex”, I use in Mossberg 590A1 with 4 different types Aguila mini shells, works great. Need to try the Federals. Thanks for video!

Sir, thank you so much for letting us know what the part is called. I couldn’t remember it when I was making the video. I appreciate you sharing that with our subscribers!

@marcusbrown8335 Месяц назад

Just picked up OPsol and some minis today. Time to practice

The SRM 1228 is also pretty neat with the shorty shells.

Thanks for showcasing our Mini Clip adapter. WE pioneered the use of minishells in Mossberg 500s back in 2015. At that time, only Aguila made minishells. The whole idea for our development of the adapter was so that our wives and daughters could and would use a 12 gage shotgun for home defense. I tried low recoil, etc, but pretty much it was a hard no from the family. With minishells, they are very comfortable. The thing most people don't understand (yet), is the power of the minishells is really dependent on the design. We have a friend who has made research minishells for us that are very powerful....to powerful really. Typically, the big difference between minis and regular is the payload. Either way, a federal minibuck is 15 #4s travelling at about 1100 fps, or the speed of a 22LR. They are or were 6 00 buck minishells available for awhile. Our friend made us brirdshot mini rounds that hit like slugs out to 20 yards.

Thank you for watching and commenting. I actually purchased one of these for my brother and hoping it will be delivered soon.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 27 дней назад

I plan to do a detailed video of the product and hopefully you can use that if people are curious of our thoughts.

@@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC You are welcome. Look forward to it. If you need any info on development, history, or our work with minis, please email us at our website. My partner, who runs the business side, will forward to me.

There is an adapter available to reliably feed mini shells in the m500 series. Of course, you mentioned this at the end.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Hey Skip, you’re 100% correct. There is a part that is available that makes the feeding of mini shells very reliable.

@grampstoolshed2726 3 месяца назад

Looks fun!!!

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Yes, sir, quite a bit of fun!

@alancrews2066 3 месяца назад

Have a little more testing to do. Looks like I will be using them.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Yes, very soft recoiling. There is a part that is made in Texas. I think it’s called OPSOEL - mini. I just ordered one from Midway. These allow you to run the mini shells in the Mossberg 500 or 590 series. Thanks for commenting. If you haven’t already, I hope you will subscribe and share the channel with friends and family.

I personally see in a closed unventilated Home Defense less smoke with faster follow-up shots. Yes less power, but you’re dealing with very short ranges. In a home defense with any gun generates smoke, but a SG it could cut your visibility. I think they are viable. My KSG holds 22 (11/11) plus one in the tube.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC День назад

Sir, thank you for your comments and for your perspective. I think you raise very interesting points. Those are the sorts of things people should seriously consider when a firearm for personal protection or home defense.

@michaelgraham8854 3 месяца назад

I think those shells are fun. They run well in my Stevens 320 and i use an opsol mini clip in my moss 500 and mav. 88. #4 buck does a good job on targets, i think they should do good in self defence if you have no other ammo.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Sir, thank you so much for watching and commenting. It’s a very interesting round to shoot. Soft recoiling, and as you pointed out might be a good option to have on hand in case you have nothing else. Stay safe.

@J_D_Rambro 3 месяца назад

They fit/work well in both my keltec ksg & 25 and also mossberg shockwave.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

That is great to hear!

@Pyncont 3 месяца назад

Does it work in the shockwave without the adapter I just picked up a nightstick

@Tac2cool556 2 месяца назад

@@Pyncontnope unless it’s the 590s

@granitejeepc3651 3 месяца назад

i been using these about 20 years..Aguila 1.5" and Centurion 2" they work on Ithaca 37, Winchester Defender, Browning BPS, KSG and Ks7 without mods. Centurion load runs in most pumps adapter or not. Same power as full size no. but gets the job done with more rounds and less recoil old 45 vs 9 debate in shotgun form

For most, it may not be the #1 choice, but it beats throwing rocks.😉

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Right on! It wouldn’t be my number one choice but it’s a fun round to experiment with and have on hand especially when teaching new shooters! Thank you so much for watching commenting. Please share the channel with friends and family.

@alancrews2066 3 месяца назад

Potential users need the lighter recoil. Have the adaptor and so far with 60 rounds no malfunctions.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 3 месяца назад

Very good points. Thank you for watching and commenting.

590S Shockwave (with brace) + 4Buck shorty shells makes too much sense.

@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC 2 дня назад

For sure!
