I'm sure it has been already discussed, but want to make it 100% clear for me-so the 12gauge single barrel is sufficent, right? Secondly, and what is more difficult, what is the right angle and positioning. I know here on the forum is the consensus that the best way is shooting through the mouth,aiming the brain stem, but so called happy spot is pretty close to the throat and I'm afraid shooting too low not hitting it. Consequently, I'm thinking of just shooting the temple (but due to the lenhth of the shotgun it may be hard to hold it properly before pulling the trigger) or using the red trajectory and pointing the barrel at the soft palate

Well, a shotgun is pretty damm powerful, so I think if you aim properly, it should be instant death(I'm not a gun expert by any means, just stating my opinion).

I have seen pictures of people literally blowing their face off (i mean literally the whole face bones included) and still surviving because they didint used the gun properly.

That's why I'm so concerned of that proper way to use gun. I thought the firearms method is the easiest but it appears to be a tricky one.

Have you gone through the entire firearm megathread? You should, there is plenty of info there. I can't recommend aiming at the temple.

They are many videos of people on gore sites shooting themselves with a shotgun in the head. You can get real-life examples there. But really as long as you don't shoot up your mouth and instead at the side of your head, you should be dead instantly really.

If you keep in mind a few important factors, the odds of failing are close to zero.

Basically aiming as further back but slightly upwards, using the correct caliber/ammo (00 buckshot/slugs), and not anticipating the recoil, then you will have a near 100% chance of success. If you immediately die from the attempt (either missing the brainstem, but odds are unlikely as the shotgun is very damaging and spreads a bit though the ammo acts like a 'slug' due to not having a lot of distance to expand.), then you would die from the shock and blood loss, during which you would be unconscious as the impact would immediately knock you out.

DONT GO UNDER THE CHIN..the majority of failures Ive read about and seen(blowing the face off and living deformed) went under the chin...And yes,I would say your single barrel 12 gauge would be the most effective gun you can use.And I would recommend fresh ammo.Not some old corroded box that you inherited from your grandpa.

Thank you guys so much for replies, and sorry for being repetitive, am I right to understand that you also agree that shot to the side of the head is ok?

If this is the way you're gunna go, I pray that you don't screw it up. It'd be awful for you to survive it feeling far far worse :/ Thoughts with you, god speed.

Mate, just shoot at your temple or forehead (use slug or 00 buckshot) should blow your head to pieces. If you're scared about not hitting the brain stem put the barrel behind your ear. Don't risk putting that barrel into your throat.

@Ryan.s

Hey, I echo you, shoot at the temple.

Here look at this pic, of someone try the mouth, and guess what, they survived, have facial reconstruction.

Shotgun to mouth, survived, facial construction, gore image. Click if you want to see.

I sure don't want this to happen to me, if I go the gun route, I still chose the temple like that 2 guys you post above.
What you think of that image above, it scary if you survive to the mouth right? That why I chose the temple.

Bro, I care about you. I want you to get the best CTB possible. Use a gun! You cannot go wrong with 12 gauge shotgun suicides! Check the statistics. Shotgun to the head is 90% deadly compared to the mere 2% that popping a bunch of pills provides, and hanging is somewhere in the 60% lethality range which is considered a very reliable and deadly method, so 12 gauge shotgun to the head (with 00 buckshot or 2 3/4 slug) is near foil proof (source is lost all hope.com) https://lostallhope.com/suicide-methods/firearms/reliability. I would say that those 10% that fail in shotgun suicides definitely put the barrel under the chin and flinch last second, hence why when you see the title of an article as "man fails shotgun suicide) it is his face that is blown off. Seriously friend, you put a 12 gauge to your head, it will make the brain fly out (literally blows your brains out. (Search Isis slow motion shotgun execution)

This article will give you all the faith in the world that shotgun to the head will work


Read it, read it, read it!

You're one lucky man having a shotgun. I can't get them here's have to resort to painful hanging. PM me if you want more resources. I have tons of information and have researched shotgun suicides for quite a while.

Best bro,

Thank you @Ryan.s

This is so true, and the pic too, clearly show this person shot at the mouth, and it exit the face. Temple/head it is for me, like that Shuaiby guy and the Russian guy.

Mouth shot gone wrong. Click to see.

Thank you.

quote from the article. [ Occasionally, people shooting themselves in the mouth tilt the head too far backward before firing. This results in their "shooting off" the face and sometimes the frontal lobes (Figure 8.18). In such instances, death may not be immediate. The author has seen individuals survive weeks with such wounds. One individual who shot off his face survived a number of months in a vegetative state only to die from meningitis due to an intracranial abscess that formed about a tooth driven into the occipital lobe of the brain. ]

Are you sure the Russian guy is using a shotgun? Looks like an AK-47 to me....

That's because it's part of the AK family (body of an AK chambered in 12 gauge) it's called a Saiga 12 shotgun, made in Russia.
