    Mag extensions that fit 870s AND Moss 500?

    I have several mag extensions for Rem 870s. I once sold one to a friend who I think was able to screw the extension onto a Mossberg 500/590 or similar variant. I know some Mossbergs do not accept extensions, but it looks like some of their home defense or tactical models do have Remington...

    Should I buy?

    I found an 870 express today that I could probably get for $100.00. It appeared to have a spattering of surface rust on the receiver, barrel, tube, and possibly in the chamber (but I could wipe the chamber clean with just a finger, so maybe it was just dust). The stocks are synthetic and the...

    Why don't we see more 22mag autos?

    22mag is popular enough to keep bolt actions in production by a number of makers. Why don't they offer autos? I would love something like a Marlin 795 or Ruger 10/22 in 22mag. I know there actually was a 10/22mag, but apparently the design was flawed from what I have read. Your thoughts?

    Convert Marlin 60 to Marlin 795????

    Can a Marlin model 60 tube fed .22 be converted into the magazine fed version (the model 795)? If anyone knows about this or how to do it, I would appreciate the info. Thanks.

    Painting a shotgun????

    If I pick up a cheap well used 870 with a worn finish, is there any reason not to spray the external surfaces down with a good quality spray paint to prevent rust? I'm sort of thinking of a gun to use on wet hunts. A high dollar finish wouldn't be appropriate on a cheap beater shotgun. Any...

    Any top quality +3 extensions for Rem 870s?

    Wilson and Vang Comp make +1 and +2 extensions for the 870 and they are top quality. Does anyone make an equally good +3 extension? I think I have had Choate and maybe a Tac-star and they are not on the same level. In fact, I think both had plastic plugs in the end of the tube with the metal...
