2You like it? I like my 930. I guess I need to take some pictures today.

I’ll play! I’ll be happy to put up the autoloader in another post when I get it out of jail.

9That looks like it’s a nice gun, Marlene. Do you have any more pictures of it?
Re: Shotguns picture thread.
10Maybe there are some old ones on here somewhere. I’ll look. It’s a H. A. Lindner for Charles Daly about 1880.

11completely shot out, not even a hint of rifling.
i've probably shot it twice, per barrel that is, and now it gathers dust, lint and dead bugs in the locking cabinet. its last outing was to shoot some 3" slugs, and there's video out there somewhere of me doing the pain dance. i think i even used the F word, followed by the S word. at least i didn't drop it.

after i had a couple of rifles and a couple of pistols, i figured i needed a shotgun, too, because... well, just because. so i bought one, a side by side double barrelled 12 gauge "sportsmans cleveland"*. i think it was sort of a "monkey ward" gun, sold out of the sporting goods dept of a department store. probably made in the 40s by j. stevens. you youngin's wouldn't 'member.i've probably shot it twice, per barrel that is, and now it gathers dust, lint and dead bugs in the locking cabinet. its last outing was to shoot some 3" slugs, and there's video out there somewhere of me doing the pain dance. i think i even used the F word, followed by the S word. at least i didn't drop it.

12No stocks. Some assembly required. Mint condition, though.
Spearmint, that is.
Here is my Pardner 12 ga that I broke my first clays with. Pic left over from the last equinox.

13Here's mine. By law it is not a shotgun. But it does shoot those 12ga shells nicely.

14I've heard so many pros and cons about those pistols - mostly regarding practicality. It seems that people love 'em or hate 'em. What say you, TrueTexan?

Re: Shotguns picture thread.
16Shot one this past Spring. Coupled with a laser, they are relatively accurate with mini slugs out to about 10 yards. Practically speaking, I wouldn't rely on it for anything other than amusing the shit out of your friends.K9s wrote:I've heard so many pros and cons about those pistols - mostly regarding practicality.

For the price* and possible questionable legality in the long run, you're better off with a Mossberg Persuader.

17I got it for home defense with it laser sight bore sighted for 20 feet using mini rounds good for that. Also would make a good truck gun for snakes and small varmits around a farm or ranch. Your not going to do any skeet shooting with it.K9s wrote: Mon Jul 29, 2019 1:22 pm I've heard so many pros and cons about those pistols - mostly regarding practicality.
