So, here’s my take. Is long time ago, I was considering an over /under, so I rented one for a round of sporting clays. I typically shoot around 75 on a hundred round course. So, it was around station 8 that I noticed that my shotgun had no front bead. Made absolutely no difference in my...

I have a Stoeger M2000. Nice shotgun, works well. However I have learned that about the only thing that will cause it to malfunction is heavy lubricant on the bolt. My recommendation is to stick with something very light such as Remoil.

Nah, you can step on them too. Won't hurt 'em.

Take a look at Remington's website: http://remington.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/87/kw/870/session/L3RpbWUvMTQyODU5NjY2Ni9zaWQvVGdCTEVyam0%3D

Not true. I took a shotgun class at Tac Pro Shooting Center from Bill Davison. There was a young lady taking the course with us and she was using Bill's Vang Comped 870. She certainly suffered no accuracy loss with slugs as she scored better than the rest of us when shooting slugs. We each...

Nice job, Sam1911! Listen to Sam1911. Your questions make it patently obvious that you haven't learned the fundamentals of shotgun shooting. Do that first and then consider modifications (or not ).

You say that you intend to keep it in your shop. You don't say where you are located, but i am assuming that you have some sort of climate control in your shop? It's not built over a swamp is it? Unless you are located next to a lake or are on the beach somewhere with no climate control, I'm...

No, there are lots of these cases in Texas. I will bet good money that he will be no billed by the Grand Jury. There was an incident where a young guy was robbing the folks in an Albertsons a few blocks from my house. The store manager superstitiously called her husband on her cell. He heard...

I have 2 express's. Many thousands of rounds...no issues. I have a friend that bought one and had sticky chamber. I honed it out for him and now he has no issues.

The Weatherby SA-08 is made by ATA in TURKEY. That doesn't mean it is a bad shotgun.

Texas, ah luv yew!

Yes, that was the Tac Pro class, and a friend that took it along with me shot the pictures for an article that was published in one of the gun magazines (I forget which one just now). The picture I posted earlier didn't make it into the article. The class was absolutely top drawer. Bill...

To understand this better get a copy of Shotgunning: The Art and the Science by Bob Brister. He has some excellent charts using the Remington 1100, if my memory serves me. All of the recoil is there, but it is broken up into 3 or 4 "bumps" rather than 1. You can't feel the bumps because they...

I have a hard time understanding this. On both of my ported shotguns, as well as the 870 in the picture the ports are well before the choke. Additionally, I think that most people miss the point of porting on shotguns. It isn't to reduce recoil, it is more to help negate barrel rise to...
