      Battle of the Pump: Moss 500/590 vs Rem 870

      I am looking to get another shotgun but have been unsure as whether to get a Mossberg 590A1 SPX or a Remington 870. Of concern to me is when I used a Mossberg 500 in the past and there were a lot more pieces than I was used to on any other weapon system (from M-16A4s to Mk-19s).

      Side Saddle or no?

      I can't speak to a Mossberg, but I have an 8 round side saddle on my Benelli M4 and had one on the M1014 I carried in Iraq. Both came from Mesa Tactical and replaced the picatiny rail at the top. I like the side saddle as an efficient means of carrying more ammunition and haven't had any...

      Benelli M4 11711 (H2O) Question

      The H2O version is supposed to have a 7+1 magazine, though I've read nothing yet about how it's 922(r) compliant.

      Benelli M4 11711 (H2O) Question

      They are Legal I was interested in the H2O as well and several dealers plan to carry it, albeit mid-year at the earliest as Benelli has been slow to get them out. The main issue with the magazine size in the past has been the 922(r) restriction on U.S. vs imported parts. I haven't seen any...

      Hello! New gun owner.

      25 yards in unconventional but I'm going TAD this week and I will use the 25 yard outdoor range at C2 Shooting Center to test out the Federal PD132-00 I have.

      M4 and Saiga 12

      Benelli M4 I liked the Benelli M4, but I had to add a lot of accessories after the purchase to bring it to where I wanted. Only two of those accessories directly related to the operation, admittedly, the bolt handle and the buttstock.

      Hello! New gun owner.

      Mossberg 500 That was one of the three weapons I considered (the other being the Remington 870) albeit with a shorter barrel.

      M4 or ???

      I have never cared for the M4's collapsible stock either; their on every M1014 I have used since MP School and they can be more pain than benefit (namely when trying to get a good stock weld). For my personal M4 I went with the Mesa Tactical Urbino Stock, US made at a price of $150 and 2" less...

      Benelli m4 sbs...

      Benelli M4, 11707 model I own a Benelli M4 and have used an M-1014 since MP School. The full size version is good (though the collapsible buttstock Benelli issues is a pain for getting a proper stock weld with). The general rule of thumb with the M4 is shotshells with at least 3 Dram or...

      Hello! New gun owner.

      When money isnt tight Ill be looking to join the NRA & MSI most likely. To iobidder Gilberts is not bad at all except for having to buy their ammo due to Montgomery County law. I like the Federal LE127RS for slugs and PD132-00 for buckshot; neither is carried by Gilberts. Plus my girlfriend...

      Hello from Jessup (and Camp Lejeune)

      Thanks to mcbruzdzinski and to Mdeng I went with a friend to On Target for St Patricks Day; not a bad place but they dont let you shoot shotgun and its the only type of weapon I own. Thanks though! I am keen to try out different ranges to find the best balance between cost & the type of...

      Hello! New gun owner.

      I recently purchased a Benelli M4 and have tried 2 shooting ranges here in Maryland (Gilbert's Indoor Range and the Cresap Rifle Club) for the type of marksmanship shooting I enjoy. I have a preference for outdoors, and like Cresap for its 100 yard range I can shoot slugs on (LE127RS). I'm...
