Maverick 88 20" 8rnd. Added a Knox recoil-reducing stock and 6 shot tacstar sidesaddle. Will post a picture at some point
 
Browning BPS 10 Gauge 3.5" magnum. Shortened the vent barrel to 19", put on a big dot sight, got synthetic furniture for it, bought a lifetime supply of slugs and 0000 buck(all 3.5" mags). Went to range, re-thought the 3.5" mags, but will keep them for extreme situations, will get some 3" mags.

Nobody ever made a 3" load for the 10. They used to make 2 7/8" loads, but no more. If you want such, you'll need to cut down 3.5" hulls and reload. I have a press in 10 gauge, myself, almost mandatory for 10 gauge unless all you buy is steel T shot or turkey loads. I got some 00 for it for a hog hunt area, buckshot only, but had to order that.

The MEC press cuts down on cost, too, a lot.

There's a BPS 10 in my future, probably, as I get into the gauge. With the reloading press, I can make my own for ducks and geese. Don't need the 10 for ducks, but I like the BPS a lot and don't need another 12 gauge. I'd really like to have a BPS 10. :D Mine will be of the marsh grass camo variety and probably wear a 24" barrel if I have the choice. Only thing, I doubt I'll use it much for anything, but geese. Ejecting hulls into the brackish marsh water ain't cool for the reloading life of the hull.

I have one of those. Don't ask me why. :eek: So far I have not shot anything heavier than a 2 3/4 inch load in it and the idea of a 3 1/2 makes me pucker. In fairness, though, the 3 1/2 inch Topper Deluxe is quite a bit heavier due to a weighted stock, as is my 24 inch 3 1/2 inch chambered H&R 12 ga. Turkey gun.

For some reason, I really love these guns.
 
I bought a BPS 3 1/2"(japan made) before that for ducks but the piece o sh!! stopped loading the 2nd,3rd shells after it got a little dirt and /or unburnt power in the machanics. Go figure ,a 300.00 pump out performs in the real world better than the great (not)BPS. my .02cents.

My solution: Buy a Mossberg, those problems are non-existent in a Mossberg, my .03 cents.
 
Remington 870 Wingmaster Police Issue-Best price free it was a gift!
 
Browning Citori white lightning
Browning had a promotion sale last summer. Buy a Citori and get $150 of shells for free. Couldn't pass it up.
Bought the Browning over a Beretta white onyx.
 
1968 Browning A-5 Light 12, 26 and 30" barrels. Used to belong to my grandfather, one of his hunting buddies bought it from him, and thought to call me before selling it. I couldn't get the money out of my pocket fast enough.

Needs a little work, but she'll get there.
