Old_Painless: “I received a note from a police officer that asked me not to mention names or locations about this true event.
A police officer was involved in some shotgun training, where they used #6 birdshot in the training due to lower cost. After the training session, he forgot to remove the birdshot and replace it with 00 Buckshot, the normal carry load.
That night, while on patrol, he confronted a couple of burglars and was in a shootout with them. He shot both of them with his shotgun, but forgot that he had it loaded with birdshot.
They killed the officer and escaped.
Never use birdshot against goblins. Use plated 00 Buckshot.â€
