Teen shot with SEMI AUTO shotgun...

When was the last time you heard the news use SEMI AUTO to describe a shotgun.....I am surprised it didn't list the model and round capacity too.

Just goes to show how Ignorant Reporters are about Firearms. I suppose the average person doesn't even know there is such thing as a Semiautomatic Shotgun. Most people think all Shotguns are Pump Action. I am so tired of seeing "credible" news sources using the Word Clip in reference to a Magazine. It seems like the Media is trying to Villianize the word "Semiautomatic" as if it's a feature of an Assault Weapon. Some might actually think the media is trying to get us used to the term clip because before we know it detachable Magazines might become an illegal and at that point we will need clips to load our Internally Fixed Magazines. Who knows.

Sort of the reverse of taking a knife to a gunfight?

Wonder if they know what "semi-auto" means?

I really think they don't. I think that's the biggest problem is most of the population thinks "assault weapons" are machine guns.
