    I hope they changed the mag follower, the mags are a pain to load.

    The original stock was a bit long for me. I'm only 5ft6. I took it to a gunsmith for adjustment. He took the rubber butt plate off, cut down the stock by about an inch and a bit. He reshaped the rubber but stock and the butt plate to the right size. I like mine.

    Glad there is an option...I never looked at cutting mine back...but I did like the one I had otherwise.

    Glad some one picked up that void...wish I bought one 5 years ago when I saw it on the shelf (20'' barrel). Are extra barrels coming in to swap out the 14''? or is their 20'' barrel version coming in?

    Handled it in store last week... Smooth action and well balanced, probably better balance with shells in the mag. The stock sights don't seem great, and the picatinny rail almost completely obscures the front sight... Makes it easy to mount a RDS tho!

    I'm certainly picking one up once spare mags are available.

    Picked one of these up, with spare mags from another site sponsor. This shotgun is SWEEEEEEEEET!

    Buttery smooth action, and mags are easy to rock in place. Can't wait until the next tactical shotgun shoot!

    Will it feed more reliably then the old Valtro did? I've yet to see a box mag shotgun that was truly reliable.....if it will, i'm very interested
    We are annoyed by the assumption on the part of certain public figures that the citizen should be able to prove the need for the citizen to acquire a means of protecting himself. The citizens personal needs are certainly no business of the state. Liberty, when it's in place, grants the right of the citizen to do what he chooses, as long as he does not stamp on the rights of others.

    I've shot PE's in practice. Not a single misfire or jam at all, even firing at speed. Very light, smooth and easy handling shotgun. Super easy mag changes esp for those with AK fantasies! The only problems are keep your pump hand on the pump. The comp ports are super close due to the short 14" barrel. Don't burn your fingers! And if you are carrying a full mag load, beware! The mags are heavy!
    With the proper kit and mag holders, I can see this shotgun dominating matches simply due to the speed of reloading! Esp with a full choke on.

    Anyone know where I can find a 20" barrel for my old and experienced Valtro PM5?
