I just recently (in the last 4 days or so) bought a handgun. I am also looking into buying a shotgun, but did not have money the day I bought the handgun. Is there a wait time between buying a handgun and a shotgun? I know there is a 30 wait before you can purchase another handgun, but I wondered if the shotgun fell into this category also.

I’ve been shooting with a traditional sling for over 40 years, and have bought an AR and Benelli M4 that have a single point hook up feature. Technology has overcome me, and I’ve found 30 different slings whose manufacturer touts as the best thing since canned ham. Anybody have any real world experience with these slings? Should I remain a traditionalist and save my money? Most of my shooting buddies are old farts, too, and we’re all confused.

I’m over 18 and I have the money. Is there anything else you need to buy a rifle for home protection and hunting in the state of Florida? If I buy a shotgun from Dick’s sporting goods can I take it home the same day. Is that the best place to purchase a firearm?

I’m 15 and my older shotgun is cheap and falling apart and this one looks good for the money
is gunbroker.com a safe sight? How much is shipping? Are the guns new?

I have a Remington 870 Super Magnum " 23inch smooth barrel and mod choke " with only the bead sights. I don’t want to buy a Slug black barrel because it won’t match the camo on my Remington.
I know I can shoot rifled slugs, but with what accuracy would I have at 100 yards or would I just be throwing my money in the trash ?
I dont hunt deer, only duck, geese and turkey.
slugs are for target practice only

I have a Panasonic HDC-SD9 camera. No XLR input. I don’t have the money to get a converter and and XLR-capable shotgun mic. I have around 0 I’m able to spend on this. The Azden SGM-X mic looks like what I need, but I’m unclear on whether it would work with my camera, since it’s not a "mini-DV" camera.

My parents won’t let me buy a shotgun with my own money because they are afraid of safety issues.
But my dad has 2 semiautomatic assault rifles that we shoot regularly. He keeps the firing pins hidden and the rest under lock and key. So if he does the same with the shotgun I want to buy there is no more danger right. The only reason my parents wont let me buy it is because it is a firearm.
I know that you have to be 18 to buy it so it would technically be theirs
Are my parents being unfair?

This gun has in a house fire a very long time ago and will need a lot of work, including a new custom stock and forearm wood grip. Would it be worth the money to restore this over 100 year old 12 gauge shotgun?

I’ve been looking for a long time to find a Mossberg 590a1 SPX 12ga. pump action shotgun like this one
http://www.theammosource.com/images/Mossberg590A1SPXBayonet.jpg
Of course I don’t need the bayonet with it but I’ll take it if it’s there.
I used to see these guns for sale fairly frequently on gunbroker.com but at the time I didn’t have the money, now that I have the money I can’t find them anywhere. Just for the record, yes, I am very set on this specific gun as a "sh*t hits the fan gun"

Which one would you get-why. Or what do you have. I am looking also at Browning. I have the Benelli SBE 2 which I love, and a Kimber .45 ACP 1911 which is a incredible handgun for the money. I like to stay with quality names, especially when I have no complaints about either. All suggestions welcome. I am only considering the 300 win.

I was looking into getting a supernova with the pistol grip and I was wondering if anybody had one or has shot one and could tell me how it shoots. Also, are they good for the money?
Thanks
i’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews on them so i’m just trying to get a lot of opinions

My husband passed away. He used to hunt pheasant. His buddy took his old shotgun a few years ago. I am getting ready to move and found several brand new boxes of unused shotgun shells. Can I sell them? I could use the money but don’t want to do anything illegal. What can I do with them. Thanks.

I am wanting to buy a shotgun. Money is not an issue, but buying one seems to be one.
I am from Texas, but am enlisted in the Army in Virginia. From my understanding I need my Military I.D., Driver’s License and my Orders. I’ve been told I also need proof of where I live. I live technically live in the Barracks, and some bills go there, but I live with my GF. They said I need a hunting or fishing license also…any other things I need?

Why so?…. Sort of new to the gun world so I am asking you folks for some thoughtful advice on which tactical style shotgun should be my first… I have heard that Mossburg is good… Thanks for your detailed answer on why you think this certain tactical style shotgun is the best buy for your money(inexpensive yet high quality with awesome reviews)… Take care… Tom

Well, here’s the deal. I was misinformed by a few people, and ended up buying the Mossberg 88/Maverick 88 from Academy, and am now stuck with it since gun sales are final. So, I’m contemplating pawning it in order to get a Mossberg 500 or a Rem 870. I’ve heard they are only a few more bucks(max 100) than the new 88 I purchased for 0.
What will pawn shops offer me for the shotgun? I’ve never pawned anything but I have a feeling theyre going to want to give me for it. Anyone have any idea what they might offer considering its brand new, with all the original paperwork and box?
Also, where and how much (provide websites if you can) are shorter tactical Mossberg 500′s and Rem 870′s. I haven’t seen any Rem 870′s that had an 18in barrell.
Thanks fellas… let me know.
I figured as much Doc, I’m advertising it on craigs and soon to be on ebay right now. We’ll see. How much should I sell it for? Got a shoulder saver, lube, and 2 boxes of shells. I’m advertising for 0 right now.
Look at my other post and you’ll realize why I am looking for a 500 now.
I’m basically dissapointed because of what I’ve heard. If I went and shot this gun I couldn’t tell if it was a piece of crap or if it was a great gun. I don’t know guns, but I figure if I’m spending this kind of money I might as well throw out another and get something people say is much better made, like the Mossberg 500. I just didn’t know it was that close in price, if I knew, I wouldn’t have bought the 88. I just have this fear of a year or so from now I take the gun out to the woods, shoot it a few times and it screws up and is basically garbage. Everyone says 500′s have ALOT more durability than the 88′s, and I believe them. I’ve heard alot about the military using 500′s, and if theyre that good, and I can afford it or an 88, I’ll go with the 500.
Yeah I realized ebay won’t let me sell them (technically). But it is listed on craigs, and I’ve gotten two emails, so we’ll see how it goes. By the way I didn’t say it WAS on ebay, I said I was about to put it on ebay.

I have found that all shorter barreled shotguns or "coach guns" that i like do not have automatic ejectors. Ive looked at stoeger and a few others. Im sure all the guns ive seen leave off ejectors because cowboy action shooting prohibits ejectors. I am not a cowboy action shooter and probably never will be. I would really like a nice short barreled double gun with extractors because the extractors make reloading so much easier. Any information on where to find a gun like im looking for would be much appreciated.
I am looking for a reasonably priced factory produced gun. Thanks for the suggestion though, a custom gun would solve my problem, i just dont have the money for that.
I live in Kentucky USA if that makes a difference to anyone.
I honestly didnt think anyone made them. Thats why i figured id give it a shot on here. All the short barreled double guns are obviously marketed towards cowboy action shooters. The only reasonable solution i can think of is to buy a longer barreled double gun with ejectors and haave a gunsmith cut the barrel to 18". I may just buy one without ejectors and deal with it.
