However, if you are purchasing your first shotgun then chances are it is a new shotgun that allows you to change the barrels. If you use the wrong shotgun ammunition with smoothbore or rifled then you won’t get the results that you intend on getting. That is why the ammunition you use in your shotgun is just as important to figure out as the barrel itself. The only thing is the shots won’t go as far and they won’t be as accurate as special slugs from rifled barrel. Now if you have an older shotgun that only has smoothbore, for example, then you can still shoot slugs out of it. This is very convenient for those who just want to own one shotgun to use for both home protection and hunting ducks for sport. If you wanted to use your shotgun for different purposes then you could switch back and forth between the smoothbore, rifled, long or short barrel. This means you don’t have to limit yourself to just one type of barrel when you purchase a shotgun. The neat thing about newer shotguns is they have interchangeable barrels.
