Showoff your SHORTY 12G SHOTTY (14" or under and Mods)!

[EL34/6L6]

Had this one out today and ran a bunch of slugs, buck, #5 & #7.5 through it.

^^^ Who makes the forend on your Mossberg. Did you modify a standard forend to fit the shorter tube?

 

[stoop14]

Nice guns

 

[stoop14]

Keep it simple, full vanq comp treatment.

 

[enefgee]

That's about as nice as they get in my books, is that a teflon finish?

 

[stoop14]

Yup

Here is the latest group shot of my 12GA shotguns.
Technically the NEF Survivior (single shot at bottom) does not belong in this thread beacause the barrel is 18 1/2", but you can see that the overall length is similar to the others that are 14.5" and 14"

^^^Tell me about the sights on your Express...

^^^Tell me about the sights on your Express...

I'm not sure if you are refering to my pic or the previous one. In case you are referring to mine, there is no Express - just the following (top to btm): ATA Etro w/ 14.5" barrel, Rem 870 Police with 14" Rem barrel and XS lo-pro rifle sights, Rem 870 Wing Master with 14" WM barrel & XS big dot tritium and NEF Survivor with cut down 18.5" barrel & Tru-Glo fiber optic sight.

12g 870 Wingmaster with metal trigger group.
OD green DuraCoat finish
OD green Hogue stock and forend
12.5" Dominion arms barrel.

Unfortunately, it's another one that had to leave the stable. Currently up for grabs in the EE.

 

[machman]

/I\ Wow, the rare left hand model!

 

[wildphil24]

Pictures must be mirrored, Dominions arms doesn't make left-handed barrels.

 

[machman]

Rem did make a LH Wingmaster. Probably the barrel wasn't a reverse thread.
I never put anything past a determined CGN'er to build! ;-)

 

[gwhysow]

Hahaha. Ain't that the truth, Machman. I have seen some pretty wild stuff thrown together on here.

Yes I once had one, probably should have kept it.
Which thread are you talking about?
870 barrels are not symetrical. The barrel "extension" behind the chamber has a cutout for ejection. Obviously that cut is on the left side for a lh gun. To modify a right-hand barrel would probably be more trouble than make a new one from blank.

I haven't examined one myself, but I'm thinking that probably ANY standard Rem. barrel fits both right and left hand receivers.
Correct me if I'm operating under a misapprehension.

No they don't. That's what I tried to explain. Sorry if it's unclear.

I can play again!

An 8.5" Grizzly that I bought off a friend. Modified an 870 Police pump this morning and tossed on a leather G3 sling.

Looks like you're planning on doing some banking with that
