I don't think it would work on this. As soon as the slide comes back it kicks one out of the tube. I feel like it would end up with a round half way out, and block the lifter from coming up.

Can you even ghost load a pump?

[TeXJ]

You can do what is called a ghost load. two in the tube, one in the chamber and then one in between...not sure what that area is called.

Just search ghost load 870

^Tried and true. Excellent choice of scatter gun. Never, and I mean never try shooting an orange disk out of the air with it, or you will be buying another more expensive one.

Oh I know that. I used to shoot clays as a kid with my grandfathers assortment of shotguns. Just never took an interest in my adult years.

I do miss his old Browning semi auto though. I didn't know NFA laws back then, but there were times where you would load it up with 3 rounds, take a shot, and only have 1 left in the tube....

True! I have a 28" barrel 870 and hunt with that. Dove, duck, hog...


I also have a clay throwing machine and bust clays like crazy with it. I got a tristar raptor semi-auto shotgun and just started to use that for duck hunting.

Popped my shotgun cherry. Don't know why I never bought one to be honest.

Picked this up to dispatch critters that kill my chickens. Had a bad run with the latest meat birds. Forgot to lock them up twice, and both times I got screwed. Out of 20, I'm down to 7.

Waited up last night with a dead one as bait, and some #6 birdshot did a great job of dispatching the possum. For a brand new gun, I'm impressed by the action. Fired off 5 rounds rapidly and it didn't miss a beat. Going to try to find some nice wood furniture for it though. It is light, so it kicks like a damn mule lol.



Just a basic Remington 870 tactical. I don't intend to hunt with a shotgun, so this works nicely. Since I'm comfortable with shooting a shotgun on my property, going to get my Wife proficient with it so she has a gun to grab if I'm not home and she needs to dispatch any 4, or 2 legged predators.

In other news, got my custom East German build back, SN 0002 from my birth year

Wow that is sexy

[Exodus_2pt0]

2nd the Form 1. I am very happy with my formed freeze plug SD tactical can. I spent around $600;including stamp, but I went with full stainless internals and a titanium tube+end caps.

But, problem is that I now want to buy more cans.

One day I will go suppressed. I just keep spending suppressor money on other guns :( . I'm a self admitted toddler when it comes to guns. I don't want to drop $500-1k and then not have something in my hands within 3 days. I need that instant gratification lol.

You can always do a Form1, there are companies that sell everything you need, eForms are getting approved in less than a month.

I shot my AR-10 unsuppressed for the first time the other day to check POI shift, the concussion and noise from the brake was so loud i thought i had a kaboom at first

Yes!

I keep hovering over the PSA pistol kits. My stupid plan would be a Surefire muzzle break and QD blast diverter, then when I inevitably learn its still WAY TOO LOUD it'll send me down the "might as well add a can" road. :p

This build is already spiraling. I was going to slap together a quick and cheap pistol from PSA/used shit, but now I'm looking at nicer barrels that are actually gassed properly in hopes it will be a little more enjoyable to shoot. I think even with a premium linear comp it's still going to make my sinuses wince.

unsuppressed is for savages

Got one of these ATFguy lowers coming because PSA was running a sale and because I'm retarded. I've always wanted a 7.5" AR pistol just to make noise and fireballs, and this should make the perfect base to my cheapo pistol build.

[ThatOneEuroE30]

+1 on ammoseek for any ammo really.
