I never said that ANY shotgun had rifling.
When asked what technicality you were basing your decision on, you said rifling.

Yeah, such shotguns fire slugs. You're being obtuse dude.
What does the fact that shotguns can fire slugs have anything to do with shotguns being rifles?
Yeah; a shotgun IS a rifle; it uses a different load.
Nope, a rifle has rifling in the barrel, hence why its called a rifle. A shotgun on the other hand has a smooth bore.
Yes, I know: it looks like a rifle, aims like a rifle, hence the comparison.
It might have the same basic shape as a rifle but it doesn't aim like a rifle. How you use a shotgun is quite different from how you use a rifle.

Nope, they are both long guns but they differ in use. I suppose that a pistol and revolver are "equals" if you simply go by being able to be gripped with one hand.
another complete bit of nonsense. If you are shooting a rifle with iron sights-you place the majority of your focus on the front sight. If you are shooting a shotgun (most of the time at a flying or running target) you look at the target, rather than the barrel of the shotgun. Being a former All-American Skeet shooter that is how I was taught and how I teach. Now if you have a slug gun then yes you would aim a shotgun like a rifle. But that is not how shotguns are normally used

When jet was talking about digging back to May,I thought he meant the OP which is May. And went WTF is he off on now? OK I went back a few pages and realized he is still confused on what a shotgun is compared to a rifle. Maybe he heard the term 'rifled slug' and assumed?Well, I wasn't the one who resurrected the thread. But, when someone says something so monumentally stupid, expect someone to use it in their sig line and people on occasion come to see if someone can actually be that stupid.
EDIT: Your last post defending the idea that shotguns are rifles before the the thread was ressurected was back in September, not May.

A shotgun is a rifle; so's an AR15.
So much wrong in such a short sentence. No. A shotgun is not a rifle unless it has rifling. Even then it's still considered a shotgun as pistols also have rifling but they are in a different catagory.
So in an effort to give him the benefit of the doubt, I thought that maybe he was saying that he made the comment in May and I stepped in a few months later. Here's his original comment.
And here's my response on the very next page a few days after his comment.
Seems to me Jet57 can't be trusted as an eyewitness in court as he may be suffering from memory loss.
