Proper shotgun for trap/ skeet shooting?

April 12th, 2010 by eranio

I am an avid trap and skeet shooter and I’m looking to buy a new shotgun. So I need a bit of advice. There are three pump shotguns from Remington that I’m interested in. Now before you tell me to go with semi-automatic, yes I know but it is just too much out of my budget. So the three models are the Remington 870 Express 28", 870 Express Tactical 18.5", and 870 Express Synthetic 7-Round, all 12 Gauge. Any idea which I should purchase for this particular sport?
Well if I can’t get a semi-auto then I’m pretty sure I can’t afford an over and under either.

Mossberg 500 Shotgun Ammo?

April 11th, 2010 by eranio

Hi I just bought my first shotgun since I just turned 18. I am wanting to know if my Mossberg 500 12 gauge is capable of firing slugs. It says in the owners manual that the 500 models are designed for 2-3/4" and 3" magnum shells. I bought a pack of winchester 2-3/4" 12 gauge shells and a 5 pack of 2-3/4" 12 gauge sabot style slugs. If you own one of these could you tell me if you have fired the slugs out of one and do they work fine. I havent used my gun yet and dont want to ruin it. Thank You and if you need more information to answer just let me know and I will e-mail you or you can e-mail me.

What is the best shotgun for deer hunting?

March 12th, 2010 by eranio

I am looking for a really good shotgun for hunting deer (shooting slugs). I know I want a brand new one and a new model as well. I will spend up to about 00 but prefer to spend about 0-800. I also want something that I can also use for turkey hunting (something that comes with different barrels or chokes). I was looking online (winchester, mossberg & Remiington) but there are so many different models on the websites I dont know which is the right one? Any help would be appreciated. Please include specific model #’s or links so I can find it.
for everyone that says mossberg 500 how about this one – do you think it is better than the 500??

What's the best shotgun choice for me?

March 10th, 2010 by eranio

Been thinking about buying my first shotgun. Simply, I think it would be a vital tool for defense and survival. Never really been a shotgun guy. Only have shot other people’s shotguns a handful of times. So I would definitely call myself a newbie when it comes to shotguns.

The attributes I would like to see in it are:

1. Versatility – Good defensive gun. Good for hunting lots of different game and putting food on the table. Also possibly for shooting clays later at some point if I want to try it.

2. Reliable and Dependable – It’s gotta work when I need it.

3. Simple to operate and easy to maintain.

4. Not cost me a fortune.

What would you recommend? Would one of those models that come with 2 barrels be a good choice?

Thanks for your input.

What's YOUR favorite Shotgun?

February 25th, 2010 by eranio

I would have to say my Ithaca 37, It is known to be my very first shotgun. I know for sure it is an older model due to the Magazine nut pin, which was used for leverage to screw or unscrew the magazine nut, and also having low matching serial numbers on barrel and receiver. I know the later models didn’t have the magazine nut pin. i think they discontinued that part sometime in 1956. It’s in really great condition over all, but the bluing has been worn down. Its been well taken care of long before i had it, and still is being taken care of by me. It is the slickest action i have ever felt in any shotgun, trigger pull is crisp, i can easily place 4 rounds in the mag tube quickly, and this model can slam fire, which i’ve done a couple times with ease, i can shoot this shotgun faster than any semi auto shotgun i’ve fired, it’s that great. So tell me, what are is your favorite shotgun? If i had a 2nd and 3rd choice, it would be the Wincester Model 12, and Remington 870.
I know what you mean be bferg. Everyone is entitled to there own opinion on what’s there personal favorites

Whats a good semi auto 12g shotgun with collapsible stock for home defense/tactical use?

December 18th, 2009 by eranio

I would like a 12 gauge shotgun that is semi auto with a collapsible stock and pistol grip. I however am having issues locating such a thing. Most semi autos that I’ve seen have fixed stocks that I can’t tell if they could be changed out. Then I’ve seen a number of pump shot guns with collapsible stocks. Maybe I’m just not looking in the right places but are there many models out there with these features. Thanks!

What types of shotguns do the US Olympic team use?

December 8th, 2009 by eranio

I see both over unders and single barrels in pics.
What brand and models do they prefer.
Is most of that stuff at that level custom, or is it pretty much the same anybody can buy?
I’m looking more for Brand and Models.
Also, is composite better since it is lighter?
Why spend more on the wood stocks?

Thanks
willis3rd,
Trainings one thing but in combat I’ve seen all kinds of shotguns used. I know soldiers who swear by Berettas and others by HK’s. I’m not saying Benelli’s & Mossbergs are bad, I just want some opinions.

Is putting a tactical pistol grip stock on a semi auto shotgun legal?

November 24th, 2009 by eranio

I am interested in getting a shotgun for hunting but would also like to deck it out for home defense/tactical look and feel when not hunting with it. I can choose between a pump and semi auto but according the the BATFE, I know it has to be at least 26 inches, but I cannot seem to find anything in the regs at the ATF’s website that isnt convoluted. So, does anyone know if a semi auto shotgun equipped with a pistol grip tactical stock(not folding or telescoping and not pistol grip only). is classified as a destructive device falling under class3 weapons?

PS I live in Arizona so state regulations are pretty much identical to federal regulations.
Again, is it a semi auto where I will run into the problem; I know they are legal with pumps, I owned a mossberg 500A that I put a tactical stock on. somewhere I remember seeing that if you put a pistol grip style of stock on a semi auto it would be classified as a NFA destructive device along with the street sweeper and the SPAS12. I’ve never seen a pistol grip semi auto shotgun that didnt require you filling out a form4 but they were the afore mentioned models.
