Can you share your experiences and tips for using a remote switch on a pump shotgun? Do you have any problems with the cord snagging or interfering with operating the gun? Thanks, John

I like to sling my Benelli M2 for turkey hunting. However, the forward sing attachment point is on the end of the barrel nut. A nylon sling with QD swivels fits fine, but doesn't carry fine. When shouldered, every motion of the gun creates a grating noise, which sounds like a soon to be...

I have one each Benelli M1 & M2 shotguns. If I were to purchase an extra barrel, I'd like it to fit both. Are they interchangable? I've heard the barrel hanger lug is longer on one model and that a slight modification to the forearm is needed to fit on the other model. Is this true...

Time to break out the video camera To the best of my memory, I've never short-shucked a trap load. However, last year I finally came to the realization that I've been short-shucking my 870 with heavy loads (slugs & turkey) for years (like 20 years). For me, it's always come up with an empty...

Wow, What a response Hi Guys, Thanks for all your replies. I never expected such a response. While my thoughts continue to evolve, I'm currently formulating a reply that goes like this. "Doc, I've been safely handling firearms for 39 years and have been a firearms safety instructor for...

thanks for your replies It sounds like we are basically of one opinion. To clarify, I don't believe it's just our doctor (or his nurse) asking these questions. Instead, I believe these are boiler plate questions that every doc in the clinic is supposed to ask. These standard form...

My first post on THR; here goes. I just returned from a doctor appointment for my 4 year old daughter. Part of the routine list of questions they always ask include; Do you have guns in the house?, Do you have handguns?, Are they locked in a safe?, Do they have trigger locks?, Is the...
