I have no disdain for pump guns but saying they "point" better than anything else is pretty goofy.

Working in the oil patch I shoot a lot of fund raisers and corporate Sporting Clay events. There are always a bunch of guys (and gals) that show up with pump guns. Most of the shoots supply shells for the events (steel head cheapies) that are not great fodder for a pump gun.
I've got to admit it can be pretty amusing watching these guys try to eject stuck shells out of Pappy's old shucker after shooting (at) the first bird and the second bird making it's escape. Ok.... I may be evil. wink

Dodging lions and wasting time.....
