Super sawed off?

JBubbs — Thu, 23 May 2013 18:26:47 GMT

A friend and I are having a mild debate on whether or not there would be enough pressure to send shot down range. I say yes but he thinks the shot would just fall. What say you?

For 870 and 500 fans mated with a Saiga

Put a Saiga Mag on Your 870 or Moss 500

I don't need this since I have Saiga's but it does look interesting and is it a basic compete rebuild.... So who knows....

what's fair?

I'm looking to sell a Remington 887 tactical that is like new but I'm unsure what I should ask for it. Any input? (I'm sure ill get the obligatory, "nothin, send it to me")

Benelli Supernova... thoughts?

Jakemd98 — Thu, 23 May 2013 00:31:06 GMT

Pretty sure I'm going to be getting a new pump gun and am leaning heavily towards a Supernova. I'll hopefully be getting back into duck hunting this next season and some trap shooting this summer. Anybody have anything personal experience with this shotty? Recommend or no?

Shotgun 50/50 match?

dgyver — Tue, 21 May 2013 17:41:56 GMT

Anyone familiar with this? There is one this weekend at my gun club but not sure what it is. The only thing listed on the calendar is that 5 boxes of shells are needed and a shotgun that can hold 2 rounds. Got both of those covered.

How to "Ghost Load" or "Carrier Load" or "Float a Round" a Shotgun

Amsdorf — Sat, 18 May 2013 13:49:33 GMT

Some shotguns permit you to "float" a shell on top of the carrier, while one is in the chamber, and your magazine is full. In this way you can get the maximum capacity out of your shotgun. In this video the shotgun I'm demonstrating to "ghost load" is a M4 Benelli, with the full length magazine tube I put on it, I have a nine round capacity with carrier loading.

Carrier loading is included in the USMC's operation manual for the M1014 (the Marine version of the M4).

If you guys know of other shotguns you can do this with, let me know.

Here's the video:

barrel shroud for tri star raptor

GLEE — Thu, 09 May 2013 15:19:05 GMT

any one have any idea what barrel shroud will work on this shot gun?

Mossberg, Maverick, action lock release.

XDm9Alex — Wed, 08 May 2013 23:06:25 GMT

I've kinda looked but I haven't seen any extended or modified action lock release levers for pistol grips and pistol grip stocks for the Mossberg 500 and Maverick 88.

Do you all know if any company makes them?

I know one thing.. they would sell good if made properly.

M-7 bayonet mount Remington 870

Twisteddesoto — Fri, 03 May 2013 04:39:44 GMT

I'm a toolmaker by trade and a buddy of mine asked me to make a M-7 bayonet mount for his police Remington 870. So I made a few extra. They are on sale on E-bay right now. Was wondering what the thought was on bayonets on a shotgun?

Sling Mounts for Mossberg 500 20GA?

TucsonDirt — Thu, 02 May 2013 03:09:53 GMT

I have an older model Mossberg 500 20ga and I'm looking for sling attachment options. This would be for over-the-shoulder carry while hunting, not a tactical setup. Everything I see is for Mossberg 12ga, does anybody have any good solutions for a 20ga? Thanks!

Shot slugs today in my Rem 870 Police.

therussianbear — Wed, 01 May 2013 02:18:36 GMT

Since rifle Ammo. Is in short supply,i ordered some Rem 12ga sluggers and shot them today at my outdoor range. I was really impressed at the good groups i got at 50 yards. I had never shot slugs before. That 870 Police 18 inch really had a hard kick,you know when it fires.

Mossberg 500 12Ga- Failed to Eject !

XD_Rookie — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 22:15:16 GMT

Whats up yall! Had FTEs on the mossberg 500. I was using winchester 2 3/4 birdshot brick from walmart. Not sure what the issue was but the shell would seem to get stuck in the chamber and would not eject. I had to use a small flat-head to pry the shell out. One of every four were shots were FTE. Happened through about 5 magazines reloads before i finally stop using the ammo. Used other ammo like winchester 00 and federal with no problems.

I did notice though that the winchester ammo that was FTE seemed to have cheaply made rim on it. Anyone else experience this with the moss 500 12G
thanks.

Which pump to get?

sundrix — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 19:59:50 GMT

It's about time for me to get a shotgun. I'm pretty sure I will be going after a pump (but maybe a semi if someone talks me into it). I've mostly been thinking remington 870 or mossberg 500. Any experiences with either? Growing up I've shot a lot of different remingtons, never mossberg though, but I've heard good things.

Mainly it would be used for just clay pigeons, occasional bird hunting, and maybe home defense. What are your opinions? Or are there other pumps I should be considering just as much as these two?
