the 50cent thing was a joke... and Ray, I thought you were a Glock enthusiast? getting in touch with your inner "gangsta"?

nah, I just.... I don't know... it's what I like... and it's cheaper. it's more of a subjective choice, not an objective one. More emotional than logical.

Ray, I thought you were a Glock enthusiast?

 

enthusiast? no

I do stand by most (charter arms withstanding) of my purchases.

I don't buy junk, like others on this forum. And they know how they are.

Thats why we own 870s and glocks, ray

Holla!

I agree to disagree... and this is gonna become "Feliks' Shotgun Thread"... cause I'm gonna be asking more questions and I don't wanna start another thread. thanks for all the good advice, you Mossberg-haters :?

Glenn... thanks for offering to help with my project, even though you prefer the Remingtons... when's the stock dues in, anyway? I had wanted to try shooting it before I change stocks, to see how that feels, but I don't know when I'd get a chance to do that... unless I make it out to that trap field in Chester on Saturday morning...

Thursday it shall be in

 

Hey, arent you at work? lol

I am... I log in during my breaks. so around 6:30, 9pm & 10:30.... I sneak into an office and feed my njgunforums.com addiction :twisted:

we'll finalize plans as we get closer to the weekend...

charter arms

there's an argument happening there that I don't know anything about. what's wrong with Charter Arms? I just googled it... all they make is revolvers?

and paperweights.

New Charter Arms guns are considered to be junk by most people. Ray took a chance on a lefty revolver from them and it was garbage. Live and learn.

That's putting it mildly.

Yeah I tried out his charter arms revolver at BH last time - light primer strikes galore.

Bu.. bu.. but.. "Revolvers never fail"...

that's good to know guys, I'll stay away from Charter Arms....unless I need an expensive paperweight in the shape of a revolver

but for now, let's get back to the topic at hand. here's the "before" picture. Just got home with her...

stay tuned for the makeover...

Yes, my Charter is junk! But wait a minute Daniel, don't you own a Bersa? I've heard many-a-story about that fabulous 380! It's luck of the draw, sometimes you get a lemon. Of all the guns I own, that is my only one.

Oh yeah, nice Mossy dude! Run that buckshot in her and see how it goes.

It looks strangely familiar to me.

A bandolier !!!

 

 

Wait, that's cool! Why didn't I think of that?

yah, a side saddle is something more specific, to be chosen and fitted, but a bandolier is easy. how else would I carry around extra ammo when the zombies come? I saw it for $7 when I went to Efinger's and I just couldn't resist.

alrighty! the Knoxx SpecOps stock is on! Glenn helped me do the Barbiedolling and we went to dust some clays right after. This was my first time shooting a shotgun and SpecOps stock definitely helped. I tried Glenn's 870 and then his Cynergy, and those definitely whacked my shoulder quite a bit more. Glenn said I should take it like a man, but sorry fellas, I'm no masochist. If I don't have to take the pain, why should I? The Recoil Reduction also helped quite a bit when we went to the rifle range (this was @ the Clinton WMA) to try out some buck shot with the 18.5" barrel.

now, to continue the "fashion makeover", what do you guys think of the two tone look? It's a bit hard to see, I'll put up more pics later, but should I change that wood fore-grip to the black one that comes with the stock or leave it?

My vote - change it. the all-black look is sexy!

good point, Nick. ehhh, that gold trigger too....kinda tacky, but I'm kinda getting used to it.

I like that 2 tone look bro!

I think the two-tone look will stay for now, but not for aesthetic reasons. I tried holding the fore-end that came with the knoxx stock and it's kinda big. my small hands and stubby finders (I have the smallest backstrap installed on my PX4) just don't grip as well as the wood one that's already on it. and I'm too lazy to change it or too go looking for one that's slimmer (unless someone knows of one offhand). That gold trigger though.... that's gonna have to go....eventually. too much other stuff to do to worry about it now..

recoil problems shooting 2-3/4" clay loads?? Geesh... hope you don't ever get 3" mags for the thinggggg!!! oOoooooooOOoo! You'll be runnin for a limbsaver

This one never seemed too big to me:

Altho this one feels much better:

Granted, I have somewhat biggish hands and longish fingers, so what feels "normal" to me, may be big to you. The first one does come standard on quite a few 500/590s tho.. so I imagine it would be good for most people.

Dammit, JD, I'm just not a fan of pain if I can avoid it, ok!?!?! and I think it looks cool. I kinda like the way it rolls back when you shoot. and I hit a clay with my first ever shot with a shotgun. that's gotta mean something.

thanks, Caine, I've seen those. Just too much going on in life to worry about it now. the stock I knew I wanted. next step is that trigger. as long as it shoots - I can take out zombies or home invaders with the wood fore-grip just fine

It was actually your second shot

Then he is like me. I am dangerous with an autoloader when shooting clays. If the first shot doesn't take it down, there's more where that came from...

Let's just say I definitely go through more shells than clays in a normal outing.
