I do not know the length but when I held it I figured it was 28”. I too would prefer a 30” or longer on an O/U.
Thanks for the warnings about using fixed chokes for multiple disciplines. I may just keep looking. It does seem a bit light for a competition gun; I can imagine the recoil will get...
I’ve been on the market for an affordable O/U shotgun for the last year or so. I shoot trap and am interested in getting into skeet and sporting clays. My LGS has a Browning Citori Lightning on consignment for less than $1,000. My research says 1975 production, and it has fixed chokes. I don’t...
You might be right. I'm not an expert by any means. This thread has been helpful to educate me.
The real reason I'm wanting to bolt it down is because it is supposedly waterproof if I do so (with the proper gaskets). If a thief gets all the way to the back room in my basement and really wants...
Thanks everyone. So what I'm reading is the wedges work fine so long as they are long enough to get all the way through the slab. Appreciate the help.
And yeah, Alex, I agree. The safe is not going to stop a determined, sophisticated safecracker, but it will slow down a thief long enough to...
I recently bought a new (to me) home and moved my gun safe to the basement. (Actually, I hired several younger and stronger men to move it, but that's not really important to this story.)
The safe claims to be waterproof up to about 18 inches of flooding, as long as it is properly bolted to the...
Hehe. Yeah, I plan on trying a little pheasant hunting with a buddy next season, but the real reason I want a SxS is I just think they're cool. What's the fun of collecting guns if you can't indulge a little childhood dream to be a cowboy? ;)
Thanks everyone! I think I may swallow hard and pay COVID prices for this gun because I doubt I'm gonna find another one any time soon. THANKS STIMULUS MONEY!
Both. I still shoot highest handicap at my trap club (because I'm terrible at it) and also practice with a small thrower in my FiL's back field. Haven't done much the last few months with snow on the ground, but now I'm raring to get back at it...
I’ve been on the market for a decent used SxS for a few years now. Keep passing up the cheap Turkish guns, mostly due to warnings posted by users in this and other forums. I’ve always wanted a SxS, but I don’t have any real intention for it other than breaking clays and maybe some CAS someday...
I hear you. I just like the high visibility of the bright front sight for quick target acquisition; my current carry gun is the P365 and the nitron sights are great. As I mentioned before, the black-on-black just doesn't work for my suddenly aging eyes, so I'm going to have to make some kind of...
Thanks for the recommendation. It did come with some 3-finger rubber grips so I’ll try them the next time I work up the nerve to take it to the range. Everyone’s telling me I just need practice to get used to it. The good news is I can shoot it reliably and accurately at the kind of distances...
I talked to Smith & Wesson customer service just now - helpful female looked up my serial number and confirmed that this revolver can indeed fire +P ammo. Good to know straight from the source.
See my post from yesterday at 7:05 pm for how likely I personally am to shoot very much hot ammo from...
We have an "understanding." I don't look closely at her monthly credit card statement and she doesn't ask what's in the gun safe. I feel like maintaining a sense of mystery is important to any happy marriage.
There is a 1941 Colt Detective Model on consignment right now at one of my LGS. It is SWEET. The seller wants I think $1580 for it if I remember correctly. At that price, I am content to take it out of case once a month and marvel at its craftsmanship because I do have three kids to put through...
