The Perfect Backpacker Just Got Better

[Arcosdad]

Thinking of getting one of these and using it with chamber adapters so I can shoot handgun ammo out of. Any reason why this wouldn't accept any of the 12 ga. adapters like the Rossi 8" ones?

Sfrc has the 357/38 inserts but only 3 inches long

NINE35 sells 11 inch long 12 gauge inserts for pistol calibers, but they're 175$ so you're almost better off buying a Rossi LWC for the price.

Honestly looks awesome with the rail and iron sights.

You can throw a chamber adapter in this and have a short fun gun, or even throw a 6 inch barrel extension and have a 18 inch single shot if you wanted even more range. Definitely considering one of these

I have the shorty version of this guy, and I strongly recommend it. It's an absolute hoot.
After a few magnum buckshots etc your shoulder will be sore, but it's fun.

This one is legal to hunt with in BC, being in excess of 12" barrel length. So that's neat. Add to that some sub-caliber inserts, particularly the rifled longer ones, and it's a very versatile little thing. Quite tempted to grab this one as well.

I ordered one just for throwing a backpack and have forbpeace of mind in case my side-by-side breaks down in the wilderness

You're not going to get a rifled barrel for that price point.
SR-410 = $699. SR-45 = $999
TR-410 Micro = $799 TR-45 Micro = $999

The revolver shotgun costs more because it has way more parts and complexity. All this thing needs that is a little more work to manufacture is a rifled barrel.

You know what would make it so much better? A 9.8" BBL, no rail and no hiviz position giveaway sight. Are you still going to import the way better gen 1? If you needed a gimmick, why not just include the case? I want the original version, but wouldn't pay half as much for this one.

3" adapters like Shooters Box: Yes. 8" adapters like Chiappa X-caliber: NO. Inside the Trailhand and Trailhand Pro there is a ridge at the 3" mark that will stop a long adapter.

Be aware that unfortunately the Trailhand and Trailhand Pro do not fit long caliber inserts. 3" is the max. Shooters Box does offer rifled 3" inserts however and those still work nicely.

No doubt. But what I was pointing out is that basically the exact same firearm with a rifled barrel is $200-$300 dollars more than the smooth barrel. So you couldn’t expect to get this one with a rifled barrel for the same cost

Why is that?

That's very helpful, thanks for posting. I would be interested in something with an extremely short barrel that could take a six-inch insert.
