Shotguns

The GunDNA database lists 296 shotguns, organized into standard sporting and field shotguns and tactical (defensive) shotguns. Standard models make up the bulk of the category, covering hunting, clays, and general-purpose use.

12 gauge is by far the most common bore, followed by 20 gauge, .410 bore, and the less common 28 and 16 gauge. Tactical shotguns concentrate in 12 gauge for home-defense and duty roles.
