i have one and it makes a better boat paddle than a gun, their just a knock off benelli and if ure looking for a $300 benelli this isnt it, mine just isn't tough enough for the weather i hunt in, when the weathers fair its pretty good, but in cold weather it jams up, and it HATES snow, and if you ar...

i have a chocolate lab, i have hunted with him for one year, he loves the hunt, he has no trouble going and getting the birds, on that he does fine. i just cant seem to get him to look for the birds, every time we shoot a bird, i have to throw a rock in the water next to the bird so he can see where...

i dont really have a boat with a leak in it, i have a boat around my leaks. every time i get all the leaks patched a new one springs. now that duck season is over ive got till november to beef it up. the boat was given to me and some attempts were made to fix it, well now the previous owners patchin...

1100's are good guns, dads is reliable but like chaingang said a few jamming issues, but its an older gun too, remington 1187 is a good autoloader too, alot like the 1100's, i duck hunt with a stoeger m2000 and i love it, it has a little trouble cycling low brass, but 3" shells never a problem, also...

i live in central ky making a trip to land between the lakes, havent heard much about the hunting, anyone been there this season? if so hows the hunting.

i am going to put a blind on a 14 ft flat bottom jon boat, and am looking for plans, i dont really no where to start. if any one would be willing to share plans i would appriciate it.

i have a thing for 24" barrels, just feels like i can swing and keep a beed on my target better, but when my target is farther out i have to have more range than a 24" can offer, i have to 26" barrels and they pack all the range i need especially w/ 3" shells, i cant tell much of a range difference ...

i have never had a gun rust that bad but to help prevent in the future i use this stuff in a spray can called reel magic or real magic cant remember how its spelled. it comes in a little blue can with a white top, i spray my guns before i take them out and when i get back and it's worked on my guns ...

kentucky's general season opens saturday, last sunday was my last youth hunt and missed a monster gobbler, didnt see the hen to the side, had my gun across my lap, had about 1/2 second to move my gun aim and shoot, every turkey hunter knows how that goes weather you miss or not. just wasnt my day, h...

wats your opinion about the best turkey loads, for me its winchester supreme 3 1/2 inch #5 shot.

i bought a stoeger m2000 about 2 weeks ago and absoutly love it. breeze to clean shoots as fast as you can pull the trigger, i bought it for primarly waterfowl and a little turkey and quail, got it rite after waterfowl season so i havent got to use it yet, but its a great gun.

you could buy two 870's

i have a mossberg 835 pump action and its the best gun ive ever owned, ive heard different about the autoloaders, especially the 935, i had planned on getting one until i read reviews, every review i read said the spacer was made of plastic! they said it would cycle one shell and the only way to get...

i have a setter but all we hunt with her is quail, figured for waterfowl a retriver would be needed not a setter, she will get birds but she cant sit and wait for birds, she has to go find them

if you start hunting with a mossberg 835 you dont have to worry about bringing a back up gun

i just got into waterfowl hunting this season, i have heard from some hunters that you shouldn't consider getting a dog until you've been in the sport a while, is this true and if so why, or is it fine to get one, after going with my friend who has a dog i cant imagine hunting without one especially...

i just bought one a week ago from today and my only problem is that i didnt buy one sooner, i love the inertia recoil, it is a breeze to clean, the whole gun comes apart with the pull of two pins, the action takes a little bit to break in but it will cycle as fast as you can pull the trigger.

the winchester model 1300 pump action is a good choice, it was my very first shotgun, got it about 4 years ago when i was 11, and its never gave me a minutes trouble, it comes with modified, improved cyl. and full chokes and its chambered for 2 3/4" and 3" shells so you can hunt anything from quail ...

i have a franchi model 500 autoloader, and am having many problems with it, its not a new gun by any means, probably at least 20 years old, but it has trouble cycling shells, not just light dove loads, any shell, after the first shot, it will try to kick out 2 shells at once so im stuck trying to ge...

like tdhusker said they are very durable, my dad has thrown his over a cliff (not intentionally) but was lucky enough to find it and it still dosent have a problem, not a scratch on it.

if you are not on a tight budget a ruger red label is an excellent gun, my dad has one and i shoot it alot, love the feel of it and is just a great gun, but is not cheap by any means.

thanks for the help

i am looking for a new autoloading shotgun, on a tight budget so the remington spf453 and stoeger m2000 looks good, im leaning more towards the stoeger, anyone have any sudgestions?
