I've never heard of these things before, inserts that slide into your break open shotgun that allows you to shoot various other calibers from 22lr, 357 mag, 45lc, 45/70 410 to 20ga, just about anything really. They come in lengths from a couple of inches to 18. Now I have to admit it sounds rather Micky Mouse to me. However there's a certain appeal to being able to shoot 45/70 or 45lc out of my exposed hammer double barrel, 20" coach gun. They say that 45lc is eerily quiet.
I'm not sure how many makers of there are but it's more than a couple. They vary widely in price. An 8" 45lc was $139.00 at one maker and an 11" 45lc was $65.00 at another, Everything is sold out everywhere. What isn't?
Has anyone played with these inserts? Are they junk? I saw on YouTube you have to pluck the cases out with your fingers, no extractor. Anyone have an opinion on these or which maker is best? I might try a couple of the 45lc in my double barrel. I'd likely go with the 11". Contrary to popular belief, you gain almost nothing after that on 45lc. I have a pretty neat idea on how to put a small Skinner ghost ring sight on it. Of course, this all depends if these things are not crap and if they ever come up for sale again.
