Detachable Magazine Shotguns

I watched this and it seems like an insane amount of fun to do a 20-round mag dump of a 12 gauge.

Anyone have a box mag shotgun?

No, but I want one.

Nice to see you around again.

You can even get that in the Shockwave 590M

Not here.

I kind of like the 870 dm too...

When Remington came out with the mag-fed 870 I wondered what the application was. Still wondering.

Consider, as an alternative, putting an extended mag tube on whatever shotgun you like and practice loading it quickly. Plenty of videos online for technique.

We also have the Saiga 12 Mag feed semi auto 12ga.

Does it have to have an application?

I'd bet for 3-gun you could move pretty quickly with one of those 20 rounders. I think max on a tube is what, 12? Be interesting to see a couple of folks who were really good with both to see who can run a course quicker- whether the mag or semi auto makes more of a difference.

Well, you can get between 7 and 21 rounds of ammo in a shotgun with an 18.5" barrel, with a full reload of 6 to 20 rounds in a few seconds.

Take a look at that video. He burns 20 rounds in about 3 seconds and seems kinda surprised it went that fast.

I can't wait for spring to come so I can unleash the fun machine. 5, 9, and 19 round magazines available, interchangeable chokes, AR-15 styling with carry handle, fully adjustable rear sight, distance adjustable front sight, picatinny all over the place, one piece lower/grip/buttstock, under 8 pounds unloaded, 12 gage, takes 2&3/4 or 3 inch shells, gas operated. I made a thread about it, there are videos there, as well as in the frivolous gun purchases thread.
