How to use shotgun in a sentence?

  1. Steady Eddy:

    He who lives by the sword, will eventually be wiped out by some bastard with a sawn off shotgun

  2. Mauricio Santoro:

    Temer may have a honeymoon, but let's not forget this was a shotgun wedding, reforms aren't easy at the best of times and these are for sure not the easiest.

  3. Border Patrol:

    An agent observed the individual fail to comply with the verbal commands and aim what was determined to be a 20-gauge shotgun at him, the agent discharged his service-issued M-4, striking the individual, who died at the scene.

  4. George Santos:

    George Santos represents the kind of progress than the Left is so threatened by – a gay, Latino, first generation American and Republican who won a Biden district in overwhelming fashion by showing everyday voters that there is a better option than the broken promises and failed policies of the Democratic Party. After four years in the public eye, and on the verge of being sworn in as a member of the Republican led 118th Congress, the New York Times launches this shotgun blast of attacks, it is no surprise that Congressman-elect Santos has enemies at the New York Times who are attempting to smear his good name with these defamatory allegations. As Winston Churchill famously stated, ‘You have enemies? Good. It means that you’ve stood up for something, sometime in you life,'.

  5. Ian Hudson:

    That made me question me being in front of the camera and in between all of that fire, when the rounds were released — when they shot at me — I actually did feel the blanks hitting my face and my body, and I could feel the wind from the shotgun being discharged.
