Shooting down drones over your property!

[221 Fireball]

Oh, I like this. It has a snowball in hell chance of passing ... but I still like it.

I have my dad's old goose gun ... a double barrel 32" full choke 10 gauge ... that should work nicely.

Didn’t something like this pass, or was at least brought up, in Tennessee 10 or so years ago?  I do recall it being discussed.

I live near an airport...and a liquor store....and a trailer park. What could possibly go awry here?

A drone at 200 feet is going to be quite a challenge for any kind of shotgun.

Tss with flight control.

Anybody have a range finder accessory on their shotgun?  I guess you'd have to convince a judge that you have calibrated eyesight.

I like the idea, but I don't like the thought of people who live just outside the city on ½ acres of land shooting at random things in the sky.   Now if you're out in the country on 100+ acres of land, blast away, no one should be flying over your land.

Shooting down someone else's drone, even over your property, is still illegal.  Probably shouldn't be, but it is.

As much as I want this to happen and enjoy the show, I think it will land somebody in jail.

A very difficult task with even with full auto crew served weapons and even harder with hand held M16s. If the drone is taking any evasive maneuvers at all it’s close to impossible. 
I have attempted it on military ranges at Ft. Bliss,TX.  Way back in the mid 1980s it was a humbling experience. 
 

Now of course a military drone is different you could probably shoot down your average selfie drone with a daisy red rider!

The thing I'm seeing more about in various writings and videos is drone vs. drone interdiction, which becomes even more possible as AI is woven into the mix.

I have heard about the technology to jam the signal but have never seen it. I know they had drone detectors at various facilities, but it just alerts and doesn't stop it.

This was an interesting video I watched with my kids recently. It had some information about a drone that is used to smash other drones out of the sky.
