6 Reasons Why the AR-15 is Better Than The Shotgun

Shotguns vs. AR-15s? The debate rages on, and @JamesReeves will dive right into it with a balanced look at both firearms. While the AR-15 has edged out the shotgun in most cases, there are still a few things a shotgun can do that an AR just can’t. From recoil, capacity, and range to modularity, tactical reloads, and *anime-themed* add-ons, I break down why many have shifted to ARs—and where shotguns still hold their ground. No sticker-on-the-truck loyalty here, just a practical view for anyone who’s ever wondered if one platform could truly replace the other. Let’s dig into the pros and cons with a healthy dose of humor and some real talk about shooting hardware.
