Got a good deal on this new CZ and always wanted a side by side. The gun is beautiful. Only thing I'd like to change is the white bead sight. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Please n thanks!!
I need to find the serial number on a Ward's Western Field model 30-SB562A shotgun. Similar to the one pictured
Im looking for input for a new youth hunter. My son just turned 12 and is finalizing his firearm / hunter safety right now! Tradition lives on!
Within my own collection I have winchester, moss, and Remington. My bias is towars mossberg.
My thoughts are a 20g Bantam 500 with combo barrels for him. Reason - lighter is a huge plus. My son is small stature for his age.
I am open to all input. He will be deer and duck hunting this fall so the combo setup is a must.
Budget = above cheap, below top tier pricing.
Mossberg 590R At-Home Test .
Testing out inline stock adapters for Steoger M3000 and R870. Just like to experiment...
Does it actually keep the shotgun flatter and help with follow up shots, especially on semi auto? No more punch in the chin?
I have a late 1800s to early 1900s double barrel 12ga that I have not yet fired I’m worried about sending to hot of a round through it does anyone have any recommendations on what I should use?
Hey everybody this is my first shotgun and im not too sure what kind of sling im suppose to get.If yall could provide some insight that would be awesome.Thank you.
I'm looking at what's available in the semi-auto 20g space and am curious what people's experiences have been ... The Tristar Viper, Stoeger M3020, Weatherby, Franchi and no doubt others are available. Which have proven the best reputation over time?
Hello all, I am the new owner of a Cimarron 1887 (Terminator) which is a 12 gauge replica of the Winchester Model 1887. I am going shooting with friends tomorrow and I wanted to surprise them with the shotgun, but since we are going range shooting, I’ll need to use slugs. The shotgun itself has a fixed modified choke, and I can only find one or two personal accounts of owners that state they have fired slugs through the shotgun. Does anyone here have experience with a Cimarron and have you tried slugs through it before? Would the fixed modified choke be ok to fire them through? And would there be any fps restrictions/type I buy (etc. rifled vs sabot)
I recently bought this 18 inch adaptor. Thinking it would be fine after doing my reviews online. Put it in my charles daly 101 and it bent the firing pin and went through the primer. Does anyone have any experience with these? Or could recommend a shotgun that will handle the pressure of this? I have an iver jhonson champion as well. I'm just reluctant to try it out and break another firing pin.
I have an old Ted Williams Model 20 12 ga shotgun. Anyone know of someone in the Central Florida area that works on them? I can load three shells then rack it, it will load one and dump two on the ground.
I purposely collect weird and obscure firearms and this was the top of my list, finally had one come up on Gunbroker just browsing and couldn't hit buy now fast enough. Even more exciting it has the original box and manual. Sent the money order out today, should hopefully have it in my hands in a week or two. I'll try and get videos of me trying to shoot clays with it
Trying to see if there’s a rifled barrel for Beretta A400 Extreme plus. Can’t seem to find one. Any information greatly appreciated.
I recently placed an order with an ammunition manufacturer for a case of 250 TSS blend shells.
The next day I call them and ask to cancel that order and have different shells sent to me. They say no problem and refund my original order.
Three days later the shells I wanted arrive… but so does the original case of 250 that I was refunded for and didn’t want.
I email them several times saying that they sent me too much. I called them several times and left voicemails to the same extent. Finally someone picked up and thanked me for notifying them about the error and they would email me a shipping label to return it.
Here we are two days later, bereft of shipping label.
I’ve done my due diligence on this, no?
Hi folks - new A300 owner here (and new to shotguns).
I need to buy slugs as my range only allows them - what is a good economic recommendation as I learn how to use it?
Thank you! 🙏
I'm trying to decide between two shotguns: the Mossberg 940 Pro Field in either 12 gauge or 20 gauge, and the Mossberg International Gold Reserve over/under, also in 12 gauge or 20 gauge.
I’m looking to start upland bird hunting and, on rare occasions, go duck or goose hunting. I know the 940 is a bit heavier, but I’m not really concerned about the weight difference.
Pros for the Mossberg 940 Pro:
Pros for the Mossberg International Gold Reserve Over/Under:
Ideally, I’d love to get both the 940 in 12 gauge and the over/under in 20 gauge in the same day, but my budget doesn't quite allow for that.
Does anyone have experience with either of these models? Any thoughts or advice? I know it’s kind of like comparing a dirt bike to a motorcycle, but I’d love some input.
Looking to transition my 870 express from a meat getter to a HD tool. I’m not a tactical / big HD guy, almost entirely just a wing / clay shooter, and I have other pieces to use for that.
The $90 tube on CDNN with chokes caught my eye, it is cheap but I don’t need precision machinery. Any thoughts?
Hey y’all, I got this years ago at a gun show up here in Canada.
Tried figuring out what it is and how much it would be worth but I’m horrible at the internet.
Could one of you fellers help me out and let me know just what in hell i got here. All I really know is that it was made by Neumann Brothers
Really appreciate any help!!
Sooo I had a customer ask me about one of these. So I reached out to my rep. She said it’s out of stock. Fast forward 3 months. She calls with it and I don’t like to say no to my reps. Meanwhile customer picked one up somewhere else. Sooo long story short if it doesn’t leave in a few weeks it’s gonna get a malkoff light sling and red dot.
I remember when these came out in 2012. I was still in high school and had just discovered bird hunting. I instantly wanted one of these “budget Benelli’s”. Finally got one last week and I’m beyond stoked!
Looking to open up the loading port on my shotgun for faster and smoother reloading. Like how some are able to quad load. My question is that has anyone with hands on experience ever thought about beveling/filing down a single side instead of both? I think it would still get the job done. Reason for it is being able to avoid damaging the shotguns serial number.
