Congrats on the purchase, welcome to the Rolex of shotguns!
Make sure to break her in with some 00 buck or slugs
I don't know if it's absolutely necessary but I did with mine, a couple hundred rounds of 00 buck and about 50 slugs, she now eats anything you feed her.
Also don't forget to ad a plus 2 mag extension for maximum legal capacity!
Glad to see G4C priced matched as well ill keep that in mind if I ever do a purchase with them
Enjoy!
Hey thanks...unfortunately my range is slug only so I will be using Remington Low Recoil Sluggers, Score Low Recoil Slugs, the S&B Olympic slugs and maybe some Federal PowerShok. I have some Federal Tactical slugs as well, but trying to use up the slightly cheaper stuff.
I have a ton of the Federal Shortys as well as the Aguila Minishells so not sure whether to even try those without an adapter. I figure the semi auto action can cycle it faster than any pump can (or pump+my weak skills).
I got a Holosun 515CM for it.
Part of the attraction of getting this, aside from the uncertainty of what SA shotguns will be like down the road (I read the mounties recently put the XL7 on prohib on the FRT), is that apparently an SA shotgun will reduce felt recoil. I have no experience to validate this but I guess I shall find out soon. Previously my experience with shotguns was limited to a Mossberg 590 Shockwave pump, a Remington 870 20ga youth pump, and a Browning BPS from many moons ago that I owned. I tried out a friend's O/U (think it was Stoeger) for skeet - that may be my next purchase but shall see. I am fairly recoil sensitive (getting better), but shall see with this guy.
Will definitely feed at least 50 slugs through it when I get the chance.
Can you tell me about the mag extension - what you'd recommend - make/model, where I can get, etc. Easy to install?
G4C is great - I have had multiple items price matched. As long as they can see the vendor online and the item is in stock at the other vendor, they can work out a price match arrangement. I have always been happy with the service there.
