2 in the magazine, 1 in the chamber when hunting. For home defense and the range, a 10 round magazine limit is in effect if and only if the shotgun is Semi-Auto or takes a detachable magazine. A tube fed pump-action does not follow the regulation from what I have read.

In South Carolina, the legal limit for the number of shells that can be chambered in a shotgun for hunting purposes is three. This includes one shell in the chamber and two in the magazine. However, for certain types of hunting, such as waterfowl, hunters must adhere to federal regulations, which also limit shotguns to a maximum of three shells.

What is the law on shotgun plug?

When hunting, most states will require that a shotgun not be able to hold more than 3 shells- the plug blocks the magazine to limit how many shells. When not hunting, the plug is not required. It IS required when hunting any migratory bird- such as ducks, geese or dove.


How many shells can be legally chambered in a shotgun?

Only one can be chambered unless you have a double barrel, then there can be two. If you mean how many can be in the magazine of a repeating shotgun, you can have onlyone in the chamber and two in the magazine when hunting migratory waterfowl. Otherwise, as many as it will hold (commonly 5 in most pumps or automatics and 3 in bolt actions). However, if you live in an anti-gun state like Kalifornia or New Jersey, there may be legal limits, but they should only affect "hi-capacity" removable magazines, ie, no magazines that hold more than 9 shells.

What is the purpose of a plug in a shotgun?

The purpose of a plug in a shotgun is to limit the number of shells that can be loaded into the magazine, ensuring compliance with hunting regulations. Typically, a plug restricts the magazine to hold only two shells, allowing for one in the chamber and one in the magazine, which helps promote sustainable hunting practices. Additionally, using a plug can enhance safety by reducing the likelihood of overloading the firearm.
