1. No, it's a hollow stock so the penny thing won't work. 2. She hasn't shot anything with it yet...it's perception. I'm using low recoil buck and trap loads, and she says it's too much for her without having fired it. 3. She has a youth sized semi-auto 20ga and she can handle that with trap loads and low recoil. The 20 ga is part of the HD arsenal but we want to get the 12 ga pump into the mix as well. But I've got to figure out a way she can fire it enough to be confidant and I thought the stock would be a help. The Blackhawk compstock looks interesting. The other issue I'm wondering...in the recoil reducing stocks that DO have a pistol grip, do'nt you still get the hit on your hand and wrist that you would get with a plain pistol grip? The compensation is against the shoulder, right?

When you're ready to bring a pup home, PM me. We introduced a new (1-1/2 yr old) dog to our spoiled homeboy this past May, and it went reallyl well. I'll describe how we did it.

Can anyone recommend a recoil reducing stock for a Mossberg 500 (synthetic). I'd like to get this thing so my wife can handle it without getting knocked on her ass. We'd prefer a standard stock, with no pistol grip. Any ideas? Sorry if I missed this topic somewhere else.

More advice...I saw someone said it...get the Beretta if you like it and get it in the finish that most appeals to you. It's not like it's a Sprinfield XDs...they are tried and true for a LONG time- there will be a few complaints but chances are you'll get a great gun. For ME...and I know that I just said, "For ME"...if you want a higher caliber I would skip 40 and go to 45. First they are nearly the same price to shoot, especially if you start reloading. It's a bigger, slower round, so the recoil is not much more than the 40 (in fact I think 45 is equal or less depending on the gun, but that's observation not science). With a 45 I would go with as much 1911 as you can afford. It's another stellar platform and incredibly classy...even the inexpensive ones. If you want to go revolver you can choose S&W 629 ( I think). Shoots 45 acp. Nice gun. If you really like revolvers you could also look at 357. You can shoot 357 or 38, it's relatively reasonable ammo, and a lot of choices in guns. I prefer the S&W 686 which is available with a 7 round cylinder. Good luck...that's a nice position to be in, having to buy two pistols.

We have had dogs (usually more than one) our whole married life together- 33 years now. We had one Siberian husky, a female. We adopted her from a young guy who worked for me and she was basically not trained or socialized and about 5 months old when we got her. She was very dominant and tried to run the household (our 3 kids were about 5 through pre-teens). She would steal things from the kids, and I had a few knock-down drag outs with her before she got where her place was supposed to be. She accepted our older dog as her superior, and eventually she learned our pack life. All good advice on here. I only know about Siberians, but they love to run and will often break for the door, love to join in pack activites (good OR bad), they are wicked smart and need to have a job all of the time. They also have some breed weaknesses, like juvenile cataracts and a few other things. Ours was progressively blind for the last half of her life. Also they shed giant puffballs of fur, even when you're brushing them a lot. I tell you all of this because, although she got a bad start in life, was always in trouble, and we consider her to be the worst dog we ever had, we loved the hell out of her. With all that bad start she was still a manageable dog, you just had to be on your toes. Never a dull moment. From a responsible breeder I would think you'd have a great chance at having a wonderful pet. We now have two Jindo rescues. They are Korean and in the akita, shiba inu mold. They are considered a "Primitive breed" but we have had nothing but a wonderful experience with them. It's all in the pack and the training.

Measure a LOT. About 3/4 of the distance from the obstruction start measuring to the obstruction and the far wall - measure every other course, and start adjusting to get square to them. As you go past the obstruction measure each course and tighten or loosen a little to keep them the same. Then they'll meet up on the other side of the obstruction.

Mossy 500, 20" bbl, 7 + 1. Thinking about recoil reducing stock to make it "wife-friendly"...any opinions on that? Also thinking maybe mag mounted laser, but not really sure. It would make it easier for hip fire. Any opinions on that?

We have rescued two Jindos in the last few years and we'll always try to find one first before anything else again. Sorry I don't have pix, but they're somewhere between an Akita, Shiba Inu, etc....husky type dog but not as crazy. VERY smart and very loyal, good watch dogs but not agressive. The male is about 75 lbs, female is 35. Great dogs, but a little hard to find.

I've seen them all over CM County...Higbees, CM Point, , Lower Twp, Tuckahoe, plus Cumberland and Salem they are definitely exploding. Trouble with policing your own land is if the municipality has a "no discharge" statute you can get in deep doo for killing a bad animal.

I know they will ship to your home...it's legal as long as there's a manufacturer on one end or the other. I sent mine clean as a whistle, but that's nice to know they'd clean it up and throw in the mags....that's a not too expensive way to make nice.

Don't call just use the link on the website. I put in my SN, it took me to the next thing to fill out my info, then another link to print the mailing label, then off to Fedex (a 65 mile round trip for me) You have to take it to a manned Fedex shipping station, not a franchise or drop box, and they don't pickup either. Lady was nice, just asked if there were bullets in there because "You're not allowed to do that". Duh.

From the range of serial numbers it looks like ALL of the 45's but it's not...I just went through the link and it told me that mine was NOT a part of the recall. Maybe they were "Monday" or "Friday afternoon" production.

Or a coffee grinder, for that matter.

Just sent this to Sweeney, about the Senate vote tomorrow. Senator Sweeney, As I understand it the Senate will vote tomorrow on repressive gun control legislation that will only impact law abiding citizens. At a time when the NJ State Police and NJ Administrators are blatantly NOT conforming to laws with regard to NICS checks and other gun related matters, our government seeks to foist more repressive measures on the GOOD citizens of NJ, rather than address crime and mental health. Please withdraw these bills and set the government on a course to obey our current laws before attempting to tie the hands of NJ gun owners just a little tighter. This is useless, capricious legislation and if passed we will do everything we can to force you into another line of work come November.

It must be getting out there. Coloin Noire did a video on it.

So it's YOUR family is the reason we have Lautenmummy and "Lola" Menendez, and the gaggle of slimy democrat hens in the Assembly. I wondered how it could be so....

All we need is for more of these Libitards to get the shite scared out of them and we'll have a lot more allies. I guess she doesn't have armed guards at her home like most of them.

Is there a place to send him a friendly little email? His beer is s**t, and his understanding of our Constitutional rights is lacking. That's what comes of being a person who grew up as a rich kid with money from the drug of the masses. In fact HIS product has probably caused more misery in this country than all the guns have, ever. No concept of reality, and besides....he sold his "American Institution" to the Belgians. If he doesn't like our Constitution, he can go live in Belgium where the bank guards carry automatics. He's just one more irrelevant hump with an opinion.

I'll go with, "Fantastic". I think this is a great time for our side to strike back and gain back some of what is lost. Hopefully NJ clowns are watching all of this.

A couple of things. #1 they are not serious about "protecting the children" or the effort would have looked much different. Their attempt was to pass ANYTHING that would hurt, tax, or inconvenience conservatives and progressives that go against thier program and buy guns. #2 - "Gun violence" as they like to call it, would not be affected AT ALL by what was proposed. #3 - The only way to significantly reduce deaths where guns are involved is to WADE INTO the bubbling, drug-infested areas where there is no respect for human life, take the guns, take the drugs, and make them live like normal people. "Gun violence" would be reduced by half with only gross measures. With an effort, it could go much lower- 60-75%. But there are a lot of reasons they do not want to do that, nor even ADMIT there's a problem (can you say, "Chicago"?). #4 - Obama will not quit. Prepare for any and all executive orders that can restrict anything to do with guns, ammo, mental health, etc. and NONE of it will curtail crazy criminals from their acts, but they WILL affect law abiding conservatives who dare not to bow to his majesty.

WRONG! That's what it SAYS but not what they will enforce. The statement about the FL CCP says the same thing but I inquired about it, and I have an email from the PA Atty Gen office saying that as a NJ resident I cannot CCW in PA with a Fl CCP.

I'm with Mak...if you accept what it IS then it's a really great piece for what it IS. Trigger and overall feel could be better but it shoots 45 like a champ, and what it IS is a "belly gun". You won't win any awards at the range with it, but that's not what it's for. I really like mine and carry it when I go to Florida and carry it around the house and yard in my pocket (w/o a chambered round). Wouldn't carry it in a pocket though. I like the MaKenzie IWB I have, or if it's cooler out the SA supplied OWB works fine. I think the engineering is great for a mini 45.

I've got one in 9mm with about 7000 rounds through it w/ no problems. Plastic guide rod held up fine. This gun has a little bit of an odd feel too it, but it's a very solid performer and totally underrated- actually unnoticed. You'll be happy with the feel, function, and performance.

I have the model featured in that article...my favorite handgun. Very accurate, reliable, and it has held up nicely.

I was told they're moving to Florida.
