Excellent points on the shells. I keep seven rounds of turkey load in mine. I will re-evaluate this now.

I tried this out on my buddy's rifle last week. Very nice! I might have to pick one up.

Ok, there are different schools of thought on keeping a shell in the tube or not. Personally, I do not. If, God forbid, someone else gets hold of it, they may be unfamiliar with the operation and not able to release the pump slide to get a round in. Also, racking the pump takes almost no time, and the unmistakable sound may be a nice pants-filling deterrent to the bad guy to continue into the house. I got beat up a bit on another board for this practice. Thoughts? <munch>

Welcome JB!

That blows for the folks in Windham who work there.

Nice!

Any kind of firearms manufacturing related business. They check your paperwork. My buddy has a business registered as a air machine gun manufacturer. He's going again, but I had to bail. It is an amazing show though, if you get the chance, go for it.

I went last time, and I can go again, but I'm not. Just can't justify it. :(

Keep us posted buc!! <thumbsup>

Nothing about 175gr... <munch>

Have you looked at a Stag Arms 6.8 gas piston setup?

I've got several of those shooting star mags, one thing I've noticeed is they have a bump on the follower that seems to catch on a rim now and again.

Oh wow, they've got 52-round AR mags. :o

jmatt - where can these be found? ETA -- quick google search... and they're a Texas company! <thumbsup> http://www.trippresearch.com/store/store_1911.html

Never handled one myself, but would love one of those Barrett 98Bs! <thumbsup>

Great pics! Good to see youngsters involved in shooting! <thumbsup>
