High Exposure 5,635 Posted January 28, 2018 I covet one of these. It is certainly on my short list, along with with a Vang Comp Full House 870. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJGF 375 Posted January 28, 2018 Damn. If they fixed the lifter issue I might have to trade mine for one of the new ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pew Pew Plates 358 Posted January 29, 2018 The 1301 is an animal of a shotgun. Compared to inertia driven guns, I find it softer shooting. That coupled with the fact that it has the "blink" gas system, 0.14 second splits is easy to obtain and you won't outrun the gun. It's a little more maintenance, at the 10k round mark you should replace your hammer struts as they are a weak point It never fails me though, and boy does it run (mine is the comp, not tactical) PS it seems they downgraded the shell catch to eliminate the feature where a precise bump would release shells. Be aware that the 2 piece shell catch that allowed this, is awesome. It makes the gun much faster to load and also makes tube unloading a breeze. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It might be a downgrade to competition shooters, but if I was to use it for defensive purposes I'd want the "downgraded" model. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but you know the old saying about Murphy and his laws. I just can't justify ANOTHER 12 gauge and one over a grand at that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A similarly precise and improbable bump can also flip your safety on/off, should we avoid all shotguns with safeties too? You know the old saying about Murphy and his laws...lol At the end of the day though, I can understand the idea of "less room for error the better" thought process if that's your approach Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
