Is this Turkey worth the price?
New sale price at my local store. Anyone have it? Thanks in advance!
I built a "Shotguns" mode for GunGuesser (like geoguesser but for guns).
I built GunGuesser, basically GeoGuessr but for guns. More importantly, I made a dedicated Shotguns game mode for communities like this to enjoy.
You get shown a Shotgun, and are tasked with pinning where it originated, the closer and faster, the higher your score.
the site is called: GunGuesser.com
Please let me know what shotguns to add, the pool should be larger!

The Cheap 916a
Picked this up for $50 because the guy couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t working. Turns out the firing pin had snapped, so I got an assembled breech block for $25 swapped it in, now it works. Now I’m in the process of putting lipstick on the pig. Picked it up from getting cerakoted today. Just waiting on some new stuff to come in before I get it reassembled.

I was issued one of these in the 80’s when I started my law enforcement career and decided I wanted to add one to my collection
Help to determine if I can use steel shots
SOLVED
Hi everyone, was inherited an old A301 with a fixed cholw and try to determine if it can be used for skeet and hunting?
Hope you can help me and thanks in advance.
Info
The barrel is stamped 18.4 and there is a box saying AD which I believe means produced in 1978.
When measuring with a caliper the size is 18.0mm in the end so there is some restriction.
I can find 4 rings next to the made in italy inscription - unclear if that denotes constriction.
There is no Fleur de lys mark anywhere.
I dont know anything more about it as it was in a gunsafe from a recently deceased relative I was told it had been used for hunting in recent time but it was unknown if it was any special shells.
Over and Under Recommendation Needed
I have a weird project craving. I want a cheapish over under with ejectors (shoots the empty shells out) that has a 18.5" barrel or a barrel I can cut shorter and still be "relatively" still accurate with slugs and maybe mount a holosun 509t to the top of it.
What models are decent that y'all might suggest for this project? Thanks
(project inspiration is the BW-5 Nitro from the video game Signalis)
Just ordered the new Harvester 220
Very limited media out on this but I’m taking a chance. This is my first proper slug gun. My brother in law has used the hell out of his 220 and swears by it so I figure I can’t go wrong with the updated version.
Looking for scope recommendations that will handle slugs as well!
Thanks for looking!
Question on precise measurements of a 3D object
I’m trying to buy custom walnut for a shotgun (Benelli M4) and the European firm that specializes in the gorgeous stock the I like wants specific measurements of every angle of my shotgun, the stock, the grip, the forend, my hand! My hand inside the shotgun, my shooting stance…. We’re talking 40-50 measurements in cm
What would be the best way of sending them all of these measurements (in terms of using tailors measuring tape, a ruler, some sort of electronic measuring tool, a 3D measuring firm (if they do this sort of work….)?
Thanks for any info
So, ugh, does this happen often? How tf? A300 Ultima KO, got back from turkey hunting and saw this
Didn't drop the gun, didn't bang it on anything, I've placed it muzzle up resting against trees a few times, had the gun up in my hands most of the time...don't remember getting hung up on anything. I'm just so confused cuz I just bought this A300 Ultima KO on the 4th of May, so only a few weeks ago, took it out turkey hunting, basically took it for a walk, only a handful of times in the past month.
Is this something I'm gonna have to be worried about in the future?
Should I pull the trigger?
Sorry couldn’t get better pictures but what you think should I do it?👀
Remington 870 pad
I recently picked up a 90's era 870 law enforcement trade in (for super cheap). It basically looks unfired, has a nice parkerized barrel, and the stock has a little brass tag stamped into it that I find nifty.
The recoil pad, however, is kind of junk. Did Remingtons use a fairly standard size and shape? A few minutes on google shows wildly conflicting information, and some vendors want you to print out a template and trace then measure your stock. I was hoping to get a screw in, rather than slip on, and didn't want to do a grind to fit solution either.
Not sure if I'm just not looking for the right thing, or if there are so many options over the years I'll just need to do the 'trace and measure' one.
Shotgun and pistols
Hello everyone, I am Abdullah, I live in Konya/Beyşehir/Huğlu. As our region knows, it is one of the leading regions in terms of shotguns and rifled products. Based on this, I think I can give you all kinds of support on this platform about products and spare parts and repair. I would be happy to help you
Thoughts about Breda Zenith Sporter?
Thinking of getting this used Breda Zenith Sporter ($1200 CAD) as my first clay gun. Will this be good starting point or should i look at something else?
Browning Light Twelve
I recently acquired a Browning Light Twelve on a trade. I knew it wasn't properly functioning prior to trading. The problem it is having is the bolt will stay to the rear after every shot and will only go back forward if you slightly bump the charging handle forward. It has brand new springs and gas rings. It feeds, extracts, and ejects properly. The only issue is it hangs up every shot or every time you work the action/bring the bolt to the rear. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Do I break in or not?
Hey, I'm getting a Beretta A400 Xtreme+ this weekend as my all around shotgun. I plan to do 90% clay and 10% hunting. Is there a recommendation to "break it in" or should I just start experimenting with shot size, payload, and velocities until I find the best option?
Any idea what these are worth these days?
Grandfather passed away a few weeks back and left me his collection of things. These half boxes were found.
Most posts I found are from forums in the 2010s. Any idea if these are worth anything to collectors today?
2 of the Activ shells seem to have been reloaded.
