"Thunder Gauntlet" by Nutnfancy, 2009
This video, titled "Thunder Gauntlet," features Nutnfancy and InadvertentSmell testing three quintessential combat pump shotguns: the Remington 870, Mossberg 590A1, and Winchester 1300. Despite a long day of shooting in the mountains and desert, they proceed with slug testing at 60 yards, yielding surprisingly effective results with bead sights. Facing diminishing light and approaching thunderstorms, they tackle the "Gauntlet," a dry river ravine with uneven terrain, to engage three steel plates in rapid succession, challenging their footing, speed, and reloading. Brief transitions to a Taurus PT1911 and Kimber .22 conversion are also included. The shotguns all performed impressively, demonstrating speed, accuracy, and reliability. This video serves as a companion to a "Combat Shotgun Shootout!" tabletop series.
