how many shells fit in the magazine of a pump-action shotgun?

Depends on the gun, I'm pretty sure. Do you have a specific one in mind?

I wear a lot more slacks, even though I like skirts, because skirts and dresses so often don't have pockets. I mean, I TRY to buy them with pockets, but often I see one and try it on and like it so much that I think "Well, even though it doesn't have pockets, I"m sure I'll like it anyway"...and then I never wear it because it's too much bother.

Pretty sure it depends on both the gun and the shell/slug actually. Bah.

Remington 870, of which there are too many sub-types. It's hard writing Terminator fic if you're not a weapons geek.

Found it: I had to download the owner's manual. 3 or 4 shells fit in the magazine, depending.

I am getting ready to do a blitz yard clean up. Really wonder how much I can do in 15 minutes.

Huh. I would have guessed more. Of course, I've never handled a shotgun,

A writer's search history could be very damning in a criminal investigation. "Let's see, bomb manufacturing, shotgun magazine capacity, military tactics--yup, this is our perp."

Our house is listed wrongly on some of the major GPS databases. If we have a plumbing problem or something angry service people call and ask "what is your real address?" It takes some argument to convince them that the GPS is wrong.

The road on which my house is officially located is an unfinished stub of a road that was supposed to go into a townhouse complex that was never built. It goes about 150 feet and ends in a field. The only residences on it are a 2-unit townhouse: my house and my neighbor's. Her driveway comes off that short road, but my driveway comes off the main road. So GPS will take you down Country Lane to my neighbor's drive. I have to tell people, don't turn on my road, go past it and my driveway is just after. And they get lost every time. Or they park in my neighbor's drive and end up having to cross her lawn to get to me.

I may or may not have done that when I visited.

See? If it confuses even you, it's essentially confusing.

I want to buy that house when my neighbor leaves, but I don't really want to rent it out; I really just want to keep it for myself and use it as a workshop. Totally impractical.
