db1775 4 Posted January 20, 2012 Am I alone here, or have they taken the black gun thing a bit too far? I like ARs and lever actions, but not sure about this mixture. http://www.mossberg.com/products/default.asp?id=31§ion=products Would anyone here buy this?

BOOMSTICK 6 Posted January 20, 2012 I actually find it a refreshing idea mixing old and new into one firearm like that. It's different and more for a show & tell reason to buy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blksheep 466 Posted January 20, 2012 That is probably the most horrible thing I have ever seen in a firearm. That makes Hi-Point look good. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOOMSTICK 6 Posted January 20, 2012 That is probably the most horrible thing I have ever seen in a firearm. That makes Hi-Point look good. Funny you said that. Hi-Point was the first thing that came to mind when I first saw the pic. Like I said, this is more of a show/hang on the wall thing. Is there a round about price listed anywhere? Looks like a rifle from Cowboys Vs. Aliens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bry@n 195 Posted January 20, 2012 That is probably the most horrible thing I have ever seen in a firearm. That makes Hi-Point look good. That thing is crazy. If I saw that on the range, I would laugh my butt off. I mean, I love mossberg shotguns, but they took a perfectly good firearm and ruined it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PDM 91 Posted January 20, 2012 Well, it would be NJ legal. If you are looking for a rifle with a collapsible stock and a flash surpressor that would seem to solve the problem. Putting the ugly factor aside, it probably is pretty functional as a self-defense tool. Very handy, easy to maneuver, fast rate of fire if you know how to handle a lever action. Would more useful in 38/357 for that purpose. That said, I still wouldn't buy one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JackDaWack 2,895 Posted January 20, 2012 OH! Let's just throw some piece of $hit together from the parts bin.... Honestly, i think they had a good concept going here. But the lack of originality killed it. A good looking adj. stock and functional top rail would be sweet. That rail on there looks completely useless, and the stock makes it looks like a turd.

NicePants 58 Posted January 20, 2012 LOL. A tacticool lever action rifle. All it needs is a grenade launcher and like three different sights on top. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlueLineFish 615 Posted January 20, 2012 To me the appeal of a lever action is the old school look it has. This just looks like a goofy hitch-legged inconvenient AR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaiser7 33 Posted January 20, 2012 I like leverguns. But I think I have theory as to this ugly thing's origins. In airsoft, there's a subsection called, "COD softing" Mostly it's new players who buy airsoft guns that are modled after firearms that they see in Call of Duty. In COD, there's two unlockable leveraction shotguns, the Model 1887, and the Ranger. I imagine that Mossberg is trying to appeal to an audience who thinks a lever shotgun is "liek totally 1337". That would also explain their stupid .22 with the Barrett flashhider (or maybe it's a muzzlebrake, I really don't remember.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
