  1. I would guess you could find just about anything out there for the right price............I was just trying to be realistic since the original poster said that $280.00 for a rifled barrel from Cabela's was too expensive. If you start playing around with gadgets that may or may not work, you can sometimes spend more than you hoped and get less than acceptable results when all is said and done.......if I was on a budget, I'd stick with something that I knew would work and I wouldn't be wasting money on something that might work.
  2. Venture was recalled........and that reminds me that I need to send mine back to have it taken care of.
  3. didn't know that factory made double rifles were part of the discussion..............I was talking about double barrel shotguns that come with nothing other than a bead and then having to go and have it worked on by a gunsmith to either have open sights put on it or drilled and tapped for a scope, if that's even possible......I've seen a lot of double barreled shotguns, but have never seen one with a scope or open sights.......I wouldn't play around with buying the gun, putting inserts into it and spending the cash to have sights installed, only to find that the barrels have different points of impact or just shoots terribly all around.
  4. what type of sights would you have on the double barrel? I've never seen a run of the mill double barrel with anything other than just a bead, I'm sure you can find a gunsmith to add some other type, but then you start looking at the cost of that and the inserts and it starts adding up..........and if those inserts are only 18" long, what happens if you have a 28" barrel? I would be concerned the slug might contact the barrel after it leaves the insert..........as mentioned earlier, accuracy would be a big concern with those things, just my opinion, but they seem like more of a novelty then anything else.......If it were me, I'd get the rifled barrel for the 870 and be done with it, probably cheaper in the long run and you know exactly what you're getting.
  5. I just went out to buy a machete, not one left on the shelf.........the guy said they've been flying out the door since this bill was proposed, another case of hoarding I suppose.
  6. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that "no changes" means no changes....but, like I said, I'm just taking a guess.

  8. I have a Venture.........I'm happy with it, shoots very nicely.
  9. blurry pictures of Coyotes and Bobcats almost always look like Mountain Lions..........
  10. "watch this"..........usually accompanied with "hold my beer"
  11. did everyone read the article? the injunction was filed on behalf of a Wayne County resident.........
  12. maybe they don't know what "slamming" a squirrel is........
  13. even worse when two of them are the same person.....
  14. I think they just needed more time to read every post on the topic that has popped up on this site.........
  15. had he recorded the whole thing, who would it have helped? certainly not him......"yes sir, you have my permission to search my vehicle....oh, and by the way, I have a pistol in the glove compartment you may want to take a look at."
  16. maybe they should move it to the bottom so the less intelligent people who shouldn't be attempting it can realize the potential dangers beforehand...........
  17. reminds me of the time I dropped my wife off in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean to go swimming........

  19. bad idea, we should just kill every wild animal that ventures into a town inhabited by people....

  22. that's a nice version of an open mouth.......natural looking, not like the tooth bearing snarling look that some like.
  23. go on gunbroker.com and take a look, there's a few listed on there..I would think $500 is top dollar, more like $300.
  24. just make sure there's plenty of snow on the ground if you're gonna go with the second option.
  25. yup, an old fashioned manual one..........
