Please explain the point of this to me..

because I must have missed it. Especially since it is a "Patrol Officer Tactical".

Remington is making a pump action .223 / 5.56 that takes AR mags.

Why?

Could there really be departments that worried about reliability of a semi-auto?

Are they worried that officers cannot transition well from a pump shotgun to a semi-auto M4gery? Or even a real M4?

I are confused.

I don't understand it for a cop but I want one for sure

Why not make it semi auto, similar to the 750? Then again, mine can't go through two mags without jamming, so I guess the pump makes sense...

It's what must companies keep doing, they're filling a market hole that doesn't exist.
Bet that thing cost almost as much as a low price AR.

Just checked $700 to $800 is what I'm finding on the internet.

California maybe? The only thing I know is that in the manual division of Dynamic Service Rifle overhere there's a guy with one and he's mighty fast with it

What's the legal definition of a shotgun? I imagine it could vary by state...

It makes sense for department that issue or allow pump shotguns. Minimizes/streamlines training, has same manual of arms, save for a minor loading difference. Not all cops are gun people, and carry or train only as much as required.

Now, make it in 308, with a regular stock, that takes M-14 mags, and I'll be first in line for one.

That is an improper mindset that needs to be properly fixed, not covered up with a bandaid.
