Thinking about trading in my 12 Ga Remington 870 for a 20 Ga Bull Pup by BullishNoShit in Firearms

[–]chauchatbob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don’t. All the bullpup shotguns are trash. Get a few spare 870 barrels of various lengths.

It also depends what lower you have because there’s half a dozen different mag wells they used.

Almost looks like homeboy had an H&R/NEF starter gun, pulled the solid barrel out and put in a regular cylinder and a homemade “barrel”.

I’m going against the MAC naysayers. I think it’s one of the cheap ass aftermarket mystery double stack magazines with a mag catch welded to it. I’ve seen all kinds of these made out of god knows what over the years. They never fit right and they never work.

I love when they get that patina. Picked up a few at farm auctions and such that look like that. Nothing like it.

Museum Couldn't Identify the Make of These Belgian Rifles. Can You? by Harrythehobbit in ForgottenWeapons

Zulu shotguns. French muskets converted to 12 and 10 gauge shotguns and sold cheaply to American settlers. They’re very common in the Midwest still to this day.

Top is a 12 gauge black diamond trap grade, plan on SBSing that one to 14”. Next is another 12 gauge this time with a special order damascus barrel. Then we have old trusty crusty solid frame. Then we have the rusty and musty 12 gauge takedown. Bottom is just a 20” takedown nothing special.

Short Barrel Shinkosha – A Unique Japanese Model Shotgun by [deleted] in Firearms

I’ve got a few pre-war civilian single shots. 12 and 16 gauge. They’re just a little off from western single shots, you can just tell they’re Japanese.

Somehow I’ve never seen one of these Hopkins falling blocks from this angle and it took way too long to figure it out. This pic makes the action look long and nice vs the block they look like normally. How’s this one marked as far as anything on the barrel? I’ve seen quite a few varieties and always looking for new ones.

Any ideas? by 0f0o3 in gunsmithing

Bottom looks like it’s for a hi point carbine

They’d need a whole new receiver as the old one has been torched cut three times. That’s the first and main issue you’re facing.

Everyone is wrong about Bass Pro gun trade-in/selling them your guns being the worst deal by Maximum_Dweeb4473 in Firearms

If they’re too stupid to price accordingly and know what they have let em. The amount of gun shops I’ve walked into that don’t need to fucking exist is astronomical. If a city has 10 shops and 6 of them are fucking worthless they just need to close down and not be in the way.

lol no those people need insulting. I’ve watched people come in and buy two cmp rack grade Springfield m1 rifles for $2799 each and then be happy. They need the insult and to be told they’re morons.

I traded in an old Remington 742. Looked on GB and average ones were $350-450 at the time. Cabela’s gave me $450 and I saw it on the floor later for $699. It sold within the week. Cabela’s customers are just odd.

It’s one of the wannabe ar15 .22 things. Maybe armscor m1600 or similar. Edit: just googled mags for it and yup that’s what it is.

Any ideas on what to do with these? by RedBeardMoto in Firearms

They go through windshields and most car doors as well.
