Flying Shotgun

Some may recall Polenar Tactical’s Flying Shotgun. Well this is a little different. The shooter does not throw the shotgun in a fit of rage. Instead it flies out of the woman’s hands due to recoil.

I am curious what ammo she was shooting. Typically indoor ranges do not allow bird shot so it might be buckshot or a slug. The amount of energy that this shotgun has to launch itself rearward is surprising. I am a little concerned why they gave this woman this gun to shoot and did not instruct her properly on how to shoot it.

This almost looks staged, I have a very similar 12 gauge shotgun, I handed it to my wife loaded with buckshot all I said was hold on and fire, she didn't have it fly out of her hands like that and it was only her second time shooting any shotgun, now she handles a shotgun like a pro and enjoys turkey shoots at my club and shooting in general, I have even shot mine loaded with a slug one handed and no kick hard enough to make it fly out of my hand but I guess anything can happen when there's a camera around.
This is my local range in Milwaukee. Slugs are mandatory. They also instituted a strict no photo/video policy after this video came out.
