Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Making a claim stating I have "wrong points" while making a bunch of false claims and for some reason bragging about video games, doesn't mean you are correct in anything you said.
Please go get shot in the face by bird shot from 100 yards and report back to us.
Please also stop comparing real guns to video games.
I also don't know where you got "three" from, but it's pretty clear you are delusional and live outside reality.
Is this you? You claim to have zero experience with shotguns, and yet here you are trying to be a subject matter expert. https://lemmy.world/post/27230270
By the time it reaches 100m it's already traveled 2-3 times it's effective range and at that point is moving slow enough to be as effective as throwing a handful of small pebbles. Seriously do fuck off with your make believe knowledge.
Thanks for agreeing with what I originally said, I guess.
Zero experience USING shotguns doesn't mean I don't know ranges of weapons. Beyond 50m a pistol is essentially worthless. I qualified expert on the US army on the M9. I feel that is enough relevant experience to know that a fucking shotgun has less range than a pistol. Quit trying to go through my shit for some kind of gotcha when it doesn't exist. It's shameful that you went to such effort for such little result and still acted like you made some point with it. Put at least one round downrange before you say something about it.
Edit: also, you were the one who mentioned video games first, not I.
Such effort? Buddy, it's literally the first post when opening your account.
