Dina arms adapters

[Ruger007]

I bought a couple of adapters off of Dina Arms h ttp://store.dinaarms.com/

38-357 12ga adapter:

44 Mag 12ga adapter:

off to the range:

148gr wadcutter, 3grs bullseye

The load shoots about 750fps out of my 4" s&w
same load out of adapter was average of 610fps.
not bad for 25yds on a bead sight cooey.
There was lots of unburnt powder. bullseye is not known to be clean.
44mag at a later date. as i need to cast some bullets.

Wow those look pretty awesome. Are they safe to use with all 12GA shotguns? How much abuse can they take? (ie. ejecting it and having it hit the cement)

$20 is pretty cheap - nice find.

Careful only made of aluminum. Bought a couple but have not used yet.
Suggest only cast bullets if you want the rifling to last for at least a little while.

They're made of aluminum? that sucks.

What kind of pressure do these handle? Do you have to use reloaded ammo or can you use factory ammo?

I have a few of them and they are great in 9mm and 357. I shoot them out to 50 yrds. You really need a rod to punch out the empties.

Im glad they are aluminum. They cycle through just like a regular shotgun sell. With over 30 shots through the rifling is still good and strong.


A1 great kit! and a great addition to my Grizzly.

How loud are these things?
I'm guessing they would be pretty quiet in a full length shotgun barrel?

they appear to be safe in my old cooey shotgun. the adapter doesn't fly out when opened. the primers look a little cratered though. noise isn't that bad, not as loud as the revolver or shotgun. lead bullets would be best.
