Hi, I recently bought a TriStar 20 ga O/U with serial number 198X. Yep, 4 digit serial number confirmed by the owner of TriStar. It had a screw-in choke system with M/F tubes. I wanted SK/SK. I called Carlson and they sent me what they believed to be the correct tubes - berretta tubes. When the tubes came in they didn't fit. Called Carlson and Shane said he knew the owner of TriStar ...

I understand that Fausti is no longer being imported by Traditions but instead Cabelas and Weatherby. I didn't realize they sold under their own name in Europe. My dad has a Traditions imported Fausti called a Field Gold III that I see they still sell in Europe under a different name. http://www.faustistefanoarms.com/cat_scheda.asp?id =79 Seemingly a good company but they ...

Recently purchased gun used.. am planning to dissasemble trigger assembly, bolt etc etc.for major cleaning. Anything unique here about taking this gun apart? Thanks

HI, I have 3 AYA's and all are wonderful shotguns. All three of mine have been sent to Briley and had their great thin wall chokes installed. They also will correct any barrel regulation problems that may exist when they install these. Two of mine are 12 gauge Matadors and one is a 4/53 20 gauge which is my Woodcock gun. [/img]

I saw a nice looking SKB "Ducks Unlimited model for $495 with a one year warranty. Off hand it looks like a copy of the Rem 1100 but I am no expert. At the same gun shop I saw a used Ithaca model 37 for $350 with an adjustable choke and a Win Model 12 with an adjustable choke for $395. Right now I am just looking for another spare but the SKB is tempting. Thanks; Leftyhunter

Would like to have your opinion on gun models for shooting trap and barrel lengths.thanks

I saw one of these cheap auto loaders for the 1st time. 12 guage 28 inch vent rib with a 3 inch chamber. It is a plain black auto loader that has diamond on the sides. It this a knock off of another brand. I looked like it may have had a Benelli style locking bolt and Benelli style chokes. Does anyone know what this is or have more information. I won't buy it. I just want to know what it is....

Saw this ad on another site. It's for an Ithaca Model 37 Featherlight (12 gauge, 2 3/4) with very nice wood for sale. This is an older Ithaca with a polychoke, and the owner says " but from looking at it, you wouldn't think it could be more then half a year old. I've owned it for two or three months, it has been cleaned after each use and very well taken care of. It is rare to find an ...

About two months ago one of my good friends from church began building a skeet field. We talked about shooting after nearly every service and when he got the field done, I gave it a try. I was instantly hooked but at the time I was using an 870 Rem 12 ga. It was my grandfathers by the way. I had been wanting a new shotgun for some time so I figured this newly found sport was enough incentive to ...

Hey all, I'm looking for a new duck gun. I currently use an 835UM. I love it's feel/pattern/versatility. What I don't love, and have been reading that it's a common problem, is shells getting jammed up in the barrel and the extractor not pulling them out. I want to get a new pump, something that can handle getting wet/dirty/bounced around. I'm not a fan at all of the Nova. ...

I'm soon going to be purchasing my sons first O/U and wanted to see what some of you folks here think of the Charles Daly O/U. We shoot 50+ rounds a week, and wanted to get him something to get his feet wet so to speak. Anyone here shoot these, or knows anything about these shot guns ? Advice needed please. Thanks

I already ordered it today so I guess I'm a day late and a dollar short but I'd like to get some opinions from people that have actually used or own this gun. This is my first shotgun, I'm a big handgun fan.

any updated opinions on this gun? It peaked my interest....
