The Bobcat 21A and Tomcat 3032 are some of the original �mouse guns� popular for deep concealment or backup carry.

Because of their tiny size, they have a loyal following in the concealed-carry world.

We saved what might be the best new self-defense ammunition introduction for 2020 for the last day of SHOT Show. With those who like shotguns for self-defense, a long running debate has been which load is best, bird shot, double-ought or #4 buck?

Double-ought buck tends to penetrate deeper, but makes fewer holes than #4 buck. Federal has found a unique alternative to this argument and it is likely the most innovative ammunition offering for the new year. It�s called Force X2.
