One of the great things about Star Wars was choosing relatively unknown actors.... So it was all new, no preconceptions...They fleshed out their own characters... and now.... Woody? Really?!

Woody The Fuq Herrelson? What dirt does he have on Disney?
Put I don't care. I'll wait until I can see it a least amount going to Disney. Retched villainous gun haters.
They announced Woody's participation quite some time ago, and I had some concerns at the time. I still have them, but the trailers I've seen so far quelled them somewhat.
As to Disney and guns.... there are very few things that will cause me to overlook an anti-2A stance. My undying love for Star Wars is one of them.....

I am free because I say I am. My freedom is not dependent on any government benefit or piece of legislation. My rights are inherent in the fact that I was born a sovereign being. They are non-negotiable. The government can list them and protect them, but my rights are not theirs to give away.

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." – T.S. Eliot
"The right of self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." - St. George Tucker
A careful definition of words would destroy half the agenda of the political left and scrutinizing evidence would destroy the other half. - Thomas Sowell
"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow...
For society does not control crime, ever, by forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of criminals. Society controls crime by forcing the criminals to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of the law-abiding." - Jeff Snyder
Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the ancient dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such it is the embodiment of personal power. For this reason it exercises a curious influence over the minds of most men, and in its best examples it constitutes an object of affection unmatched by any other inanimate object.
He did an excellent breakdown of the potential advantages and bonafide shortcomings. Bottom line- only works reliably for a single shot or double barrel, and preferable for a recoil sensitive person. Very small market.

Self defense in close quarters = more shots from the same weapon.

I was waiting for him to talk about how the short shells fed in a pump action shotgun, which is one of my personal favorites for HD. No bueno. So for reliable function we're limited to single shot and double barrel shotguns if using the short shells.

True. Which of course negates the 'advantage' of more shells available.

I see the need for a fully semi-automatic shotgun that reliably feeds these shells with a high capacity magazine capable of holding at least 15 rounds.
