Seems like this video shows the limitations of a shotgun with buckshot.
Our fattie cop was standing out in the open at 50 yards distance. If the shooter with armed with a rifle, I'd say the odds are very good that the cop would have died rather than catching a stray buckshot to the arm.
Fattie cop was certainly bleeding a good bit from hit to the arm but it doesn't seem to my eye to be an incapacitating wound. Had the cop not totally panicked under fire they should have been able to establish fire supremacy from behind cover with their rifle and at least kept the shotgunner totally pinned down, if not land a hit that would have ended the gunfight.
Not to mention that even in podunk Arkansas your average patrol cop is going to be wearing soft armor that will stop buckshot. The combination of a large spread of buckshot and bodyarmor means a shotgun is really counting on a very lucky hit to cause an incapacitating wound.
I don't know what this video shows other than this cop was mentally and physically unfit for the moment, which is about right considering the total lack of professionalism and competency among US police.
