that's my mossberg that i used for stopping cars that were approaching too close (for the record, the shotty used bird shot and i never injured or killed anyone when i did this.). if they still kept coming after the warning shot they got the 240B treatment. i was the lead gunner in a 4 humvee convoy that patrolled the highway between tikrit and samarra, which was the most heavily IED'ed stretch of road in Iraq at the time. our platoon alone got hit by 35 ied's alone that year and lost our platoon leader and a private. they had to maintain a certain distance and move out of the way when we were rolling through or i would shoot off their side mirrors or their tail-lights. car bombs were real bad while we were there, so i wasn't taking any chances.

i'm sure some of you don't agree with these tactics, but it is what it is. i did what i had to do to keep my platoon alive and send them back home to their families.
