I did a lot of research to using firearms to CTB some years back when I had a bunch of guns available, figured I'd post it here.

First off, do not use a pistol like you see in the movies. Even if it's a large caliber like a .45 to the head, there is a large chance that you can end up severely maimed and still not dead. Impressively and frustratingly, the brain is surprisingly resilient, but you end up with brain damage.

If you use a pistol to try to shoot, you have a large chance of missing as well and fucking yourself up even more.

Right as you pull the trigger, often SI kicks in and messes with your aim.

If you have to use a gun, the very best thing to use would be a 12 gauge shotgun with something like buckshot or even a hollow point slug. Do not use bird shot, it doesn't pack enough punch. Don't put the gun under your chin, as you have a high likelihood of blowing your face off and still living.

Rather, put the barrel into your mouth, aimed 90 degrees. The goal is to take out the brainstem, which is responsible for controlling your heart and vital organs.

Overall, I don't recommend firearms, but if you must, this would be the best method.

shotguns are so long…how does one hit the trigger with the barrel in one's mouth? Any advice?

I just made a post asking what type of revolver has the least kick back. How do you aim a shotgun into your mouth? Man, it's going to be hard pulling this off. Buying the gun alone will be challenging. I may break down at the gun shop. But, if I do this, it needs to work.

Understandable, unfortunately I don't have those. These are the conclusions that I came up with years ago, so all the research I did was from back then.

How much do guns usually cost if I'm doing it over the table?
