A Knoxx recoil reduction stock from BLACKHAWK! significantly reduces recoil. As a former cop, I carried a shotgun in a patrol car for more than 10 years, and I state without any hesitation that the Knoxx stock is the best accessory ever designed for a combat shotgun.
Effective Tools for Felon Repellant
Remington 870, model 24591 – This is a 12 gauge shotgun built on the famous 870 action, but with a few nice upgrades. From the factory, it comes with the Knoxx recoil reducing stock, a Wilson Combat ghost ring rear sight and a XS front sight post. MSRP $986.
Mossberg 930 Home Security, model 85320 – This 12 gauge is a reasonably priced, reliable semi-auto shotgun. No frills, just business. With a 4+1 capacity, front bead sight and Mossberg ambidextrous safety, this shotgun is easy to run and easy on the wallet. MSRP $612.
Remington 11-87 Sportsman Youth – As a compact, easy shooting shotgun, it is tough to beat the Remington 11-87 Youth. A semi-auto chambered in 20 gauge, this shotgun has a 21” barrel and a adjustable pull of length, meaning you can fit the firearm perfectly for the shooter. MSRP $804.

The Knoxx bottoms out (on your shoulder, as designed) and then dissapates felt recoil by "hinging" up (again, as designed), smacking your cheek with the bump on the end of the compression tube if you have a proper cheek weld. No thanks for me. I would rather have a sore shoulder than feel like someone punched me in the face. Maybe I don't know how to shoot a shotgun very well. Granted, I am not a shotgun guru or anything, just a regular guy, not a former cop or a uber cool security specialist (or a guy that profits from firearms sales) or anything. Maybe this dude doesn't get a firm cheek weld, or likes getting punched in the face. Don't ask, don't tell.
Interesting that all three of the shotguns recommended are well over 500 bucks, and approaching a grand. I think this guy was writing for a very specific audience...... and it isn't me, I guess.
While I agree with much of the article, (posted here:
http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=42558 , correct?) kind of an interesting take on the issue, but I think he was a little myopic on a couple salient points.

The authors response to this comment certainly points to fear-mongering and while there may be some root truths, I also imagine he is quite happy he can reap the benefits of people panicking and purchasing some shotguns from him. Just my couple cents worth on him.
