How do "revolver" shotguns (ex. Rossi Judge Circuit) fit into shotgun plug laws?

[Ardent]

Why not?

Common knowledge, I experienced it myself with a revolver, as is the sad case with any cheap guns ...and the odd pricey, but cheap = might be a stinker is a good rule of thumb, buyer beware. Likely will work great. For awhile.

Rossi and quality don't belong in the same sentence...........Harold

and this is based on what ????

i have a rossi 1892 that many people would regard as very high quality

Who would these people be! Lets see a show of hands please. Ive only ever owned one Rossi and it was the backpacker 12 guage. After exactly 4 rounds the metal tube that was under the barrel attached to the forend(for looks) fell off. Mind you it served no purpose but quality was about the last word on my mind.

Theres a picture on the right of the barrel plug that apparently comes standard for all new rifles.

I had a Rossi Single shot 12 guage, and that thing went to hell and back , got sunk with a canoe, fell out of the back of a moving truck (attached to me), paddled same canoe, and was a general work horse. The action was as tight after 4 years as it was on the first day I had it. I have to say, it was the best single shot I've ever had. I was certainly happy with it. I love these revolver rifles, can't wait to try one.

I can pretty much tell you right now how the RCMP verifiers will view it.

They'll see that taurus is marketing their judge pistol with a butt stock, fore grip and long barrel. They'll ignore the barrel and OAL laws that make it non restricted and incapable of being used as a pistol and class it as a variant and then say it's restricted at best.

Sarcasm on....
Or they'll weld a F/A M16 onto it and say that it's easily convertable to F/A.... sarcasm over.

I'm not going to say he is jaded until the FRT Lab is forthcoming with HOW they actually turn said firearms into F/A. They may very well be doing exactly that and claiming the test results are somehow valid.

Yes

Doesn't mean I'm wrong though

If you got a Rossi 92 that is good it's the early model without the added safety.Ugly wood to boot.It costs money to have them slicked up for cowboy shooting.Uberti is head + shoulders above Rossi.Chaparal is even worse............some not functioning NIB..........A Browning 92 is a whole different cat............JMO.......Harold..........a friend has an Armini revolver carbine in .357 mag and you get lovely powder burns on you supporting hand [wrist] Long sleeves and a glove for shooting I'm thinking

SAFETY CHAMBER PLUG * Mfr:CHADWICK & TREFETHEN

EDIT - Read the whole post. I have no intention of waterfowl hunting with this gun.

As we all know, repeating shotguns are limited to 2+1 shells for migratory bird hunting, and provincially as well for all hunting dependent on province. How does a Revolving shotgun such as the new Rossi/Taurus Circuit Judge, which fires both .410 and .45 colt ammunition fit into the laws? If im not mistaken, it can hold 5 rounds, and as far as I know is unplugable. If you can even get these Canada. I have no intentions of ever waterfowl hunting with one, but I believe it would be an awesome grouse gun.

Brownells has them.

You see them used in Maine, at Kittery Trading Post, where you can freely handle (safety chamber-plugged) long arms like shoes in a shoe store.

SAFETY CHAMBER PLUG

* Mfr:CHADWICK & TREFETHEN
* Price:$5.99 - $6.99
* Prevents Accidental Chambering Of Live Round; Great For Gun Stores

Snug-fitting acrylic plug slips in the chamber to prevent accidental chambering of a live round, dry-fire damage, or other tampering. Great for gun shops because it provides an extra layer of safety when customers inspect the gun, yet removes easily prior to turning the gun over to a buyer. Plug body is turned from clear acrylic resin, with a retention groove cut to hold the rubber O-ring that prevents the plug from dropping out of the chamber.


SPECS: Body turned from cast acrylic resin, rubber O-ring.

Sure is a F-ugly thing!

 

[Vimy Ridge]

I like it!

 

[Sharkson]

See new article here:

They provide a plug which plugs two of the chambers, reducing it to the legal 3 shots where required for hunting.

I can't wait to see it when Gunnar chops it down to 4.2".

He's worse than a Jewish Rabbi!

 

[jjohnwm]

...as opposed to a Catholic rabbi?

I just wanted to make sure I got the tip across.
