Why would you use expensive Benelli shotguns in the set up.

Certainly a less expensive or even cheap shotgun would work as well in the rig.

Apparently the 'hunter' was more concerned with the reliability and fast firing rates that Benellis are famous for than the cost.  Six guns, all with extended mags sounds like he was expecting a visitor with significantly better armor than what a standard-issue wild hog is equipped with.  Then again, maybe he likes his pork minced.

Feral hogs and pigs from what I hear are becoming a very bad nuisance in parts of the lower 48. Also is that local laws are prohibiting some landowners from clearing these pests.

But I just cannot get past the fact that they are using such a high quality shotgun, almost sounds like a fabricated event by the FBI or someone.

Maybe he wants some pulled pork for BBQ hash without actually having to, y’know, pull it off the bone.

Weird setup. I’ll buy that it was for hog hunting...either that or he had a particularly valuable crop on that land a few yards downrange.

Perhaps wounding enough of the pigs to get the rest into a cannibalistic mode. The feral population is hard to stifle.
