The bamboo holds for just a split second for the target to put their weight on it.I would think it would take a bit more pressure than that to set the primer off.

I’ve 2 coach guns; one with double trigger and one with single. It’s a mechanical system and operates with or without recoil. It’s been infinitely reliable. I actually prefer the single trigger because I don’t have to reposition my trigger finger.Double trigger IMO.
A single trigger gun can have issues. Some of them rely on recoil to cock the second barrel.
If you have a dud fire the second barrel will not fire either. Also, if the trigger fails, which is unlikely, both barrels are down.
Double triggers are two separate triggering mechanisms. Each barrel has its own system. If one barrel fails you have another right there.
Of course you'll need to practice a bit to ensure smoothness on trigger transition.
This is where a 20ga with plain old WallyMart bird loads wins.
You couldn't give me a .410, I've shot squirrels out of a tree with them, 10 minutes later the damn thing gets up and runs off.Wowza, Many responses here but not all actually accurate.
First of all, a 5/8OZ 12Ga Mini shell hits with the same energy as qty 2 45ACP 230gr rounds. Not a door breacher, but plenty enough effective for self-defense. Recoil on mini is similar to 20ga and absolutely easy to run than standard 12ga shell.
Secondly, coach guns are an excellent choice, but 20ga and 410 have limited ammunition availability and choices. Not to mention the fact that you have many more 12ga diameter projectile options in a pinch.
Thirdly, Mossberg 500's, 590's, shockwaves, Remington 870's, Winchester Defenders...pump action 18" are all fantastic choices, but the different operations between these choices will impact the experience.
Lastly, stay away from box magazine options, these just add failure points. Stay away from stockless pistol grips because these are wrist tweakers. I don't recommend the lighter weight value priced product, weight is your friend as well as reliable service history.
reach out for more info if needed.

WTF? Stock against your hip? Maybe a water hose would be best for you. Indoors at home? If you knew anything, then you would know that the shot won't be spread any wider than your hand at indoor room distances. Think about AIMING.By close range I mean up to 15 feet.
Home defense only
Inflict most hurt possible
Stock braced against my hip
Pump, lever, bolt - doesn't matter
Grab point pull, so always ready to fire
Safety not a bad idea, if such exists
Any suggestions on a gun, and what load would be good for that distance would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

...and no pesky arms left to sign the paperwork.No BOS or ATF forms to fill out.
Some people complain about anything....and no pesky arms left to sign the paperwork.
