Lee,no I never could get the hang of it. I did carry a couple of extras in my support hand back in my hunting days. Even with the first gun my father bought me in the fifties an old Harrington & Richardson Topper Model 148 single barrel 410. I was more accurate with this gun than any I ever...

Thanks Lee, Your knowledge of fire arms is so much greater than mine. The gun is very tight and looks like new as it did about 40 years ago when I last fired it, using 3 inch #4 bird shot. I bought some 000 buckshot as per Dave's recommendation and was planning on getting a Mossberg 500 410...

Would anyone happen to know if my old Stevens model 530a 410ga double barrel would safely fire 000 buckshot? Would you feel safe with the gun loaded and only the safety to keep it from firing?(No Children Around). Thanks

Thanks very much for the pictures. I like the 24" fixed full-choke . I might get one,load it up with 3 inch #4 shells I already have and later add the 18.5" cylinder-bore for buckshot. Would anyone happen to know if my old Stevens model 530a 410ga would safely fire buckshot? Thanks again. Larry

Thanks for all the replies. There won't be any training on the range due to health problems, concerning bone problems and a pinched nerve in my neck. That and the fact I used to be a fairly good shot with the 410, is why I am trying to get one, that can safely fire buckshot. I guess in a HD...

The standard 500 in .410 is the one I was going to buy until they told me it was not recommended for 000 buck. I don't like the dorky-looking pistol-grip forearm either. I didn't know you could buy a cylinder-bore barrel from Mossberg. I have very bad bone and joint problems and that is the...

Mossberg does not recommend the use of buck shot in the HS410. I was told the only model safe to shoot buck shot was the one with cylinder bore barrel.

Thanks MCgunner and Lee. I found the Ammo at a local gun shop. I now feel a little better, with the old 410, loaded with these buckshot, instead of the #4 bird I was using. Once again I would like to thank you all, for your time and help! Larry

C. TRANSPORTING WEAPONS Given this general prohibition of carrying concealed weapons, individuals must be ever vigilant to ensure that their particular situation cannot be construed as concealing a weapon either on or about them without being properly authorized to do so with a valid North...

Thats great, I will get some tomorrow the good Lord willing! Appreciate all the help, Larry

Durham!

I don't want to be unkind but I will not be able or need this CHL for that long,all I want is to legally carry something open as a last resort if necessary to try an protect my wife and me from criminals. This is a health issue not a felon issue as some have implied. I did look at packing...

You could do worse than a good pumpgun in .410 loaded with 5-pellet 000 buck. Remington made the 870 Express gun in .410 up until a few years ago, not a lot of them left lying around though. Still, if you run across one... lpl/nc Thanks lpl/nc but there is no dealer available near me is...

One more question since N.C. is an open carry state can I legally open carry in my car with the gun on the seat in plain view (informing the police if we are stopped for a traffic stop) or on my deck with the gun in a holster? I think Va. has this same law but not sure. Also what would you...

If you had any idea of my health problems you would think it was a big deal. I don't want to bore everyone with all the details as lots of people are going thru the same problems I am. Thanks
