My first shotgun

This is NOT a Mariner! I think they were only made for a few years. It's stainless, the heatshield is magnetic though. Haven't shot it and only have one package of shells for HD. Looks practically new and unfired. Bought it at the Bullethole.

Is that an 870? Also what anime is your profile pic from?

The only accessory I plan on adding is a flashlight holster. It's definitely a Mossberg.

 

My avatar is Spike Spiegel (holding a Jericho 941) from Cowboy Bebop. One of my favorite animes and definitely one of the best English dubbed ones!

Great show

I love the stainless look. Good find!

Now for the real question and more important than how it looks. :) What ammo are you using for HD? There are two schools of thought on this. As an old timer I believe in using buckshot and not bird shot. Bird shot will still penetrate your walls and just go to the Box-O-Truth website to confirm that. Plus there are a lot more pellets which translates to more chances to hit unintended targets. It also leaves shallow ugly wounds that may not incapacitate a determined attacker. I use the best ammo to stop a person and not ammo that is safest in my home because my goal is to save my life and I can do that by making sure I train enough so that I do not miss at the short distances in my house. Plus I have shot enough rounds in simulated houses to know that although all bullets, even the magsafes, can penetrate several walls and exit your house, on the flip side, once they hit something they rarely have enough energy to do much damage. The last time I tested by shooting a 9mm +P out of a 5" barrel into an arm chair and it penetrated the chair and only the first layer of sheetrock behind it. So a foam filled chair was enough to slow the round enough so that it embedded itself into the sheet rock wall behind it. Anyway, go to the website I mentioned an you will be surprised at how ammo so many think safe for HD are not as safe as they think.
