Do you like your OUTLAW ?

I think you're the only one who actually took me seriously, calm down, you won't loose any sales because of my comment:runaway:
 
I'm actually considering getting one just to see how it really is for myself.

Can anyone who's actually shot the gun a few times give a decent review, instead of having people with no experience with the gun whatsoever speculating about the quality of the gun?
 
Way da go Gasanu. I ordered one just to shoot and have fun with. I"m sure at the next cowboy match it will turn some heads. AGE
 
Hi Everyone,

Mine arrived yesterday, and after I let Louie (bomb sniffing cat) instect it, I cleaned it, put it together and had a blast trying to figure out how to mount a flashlight and a laser on it, still working out the logistics, will post some pictures once its done.

But for a Zombie's and a head turner this is the gun for me!

Will try it out at the range this weekend, but no doubt in my mind I will love it no matter what. After all these are toys for most of us, and why not get something you will enjoy, something that will get people talking about you, and something that might attract more people into this hobby.

I say if you like it, get it! If you don't start stacking up those pennies so you can get a gun you will never want to shoot or will be too afraid to take out of its protective casing or it will lose its collecteable status.


Here are some pictures:

SAAMI, AFAIK, does not require proofing, pre say, as in Europe. They only require the firearm be capable of handling the cartridge for which is was designed. More a, "paper proofing". I am sure some manufacturers in the US proof all their guns.

SAAMI proofing is different but it is more than a "paper proofing" and it is also incorrect to say just "some" manfacturers test their guns according the U.S. Department of Justice.

Home > Modern Firearms Manufacture > Final Steps
Upon completion of the assembly process, the firearm is tested before being shipped. Proof testing, test firing, or both, are performed on the assembled firearm.

Proof Testing
Most major gunmakers use proof testing to stress test their products. Special proof ammunition is loaded to pressures 30-40 percent higher than the most powerful commercial ammunition. One or more of these cartridges is fired in each firearm. The maker stamps the firearm to indicate proof testing was conducted.

Anyone with a Remington can look for the REP stamp on the barrel. On my Marlin it's a JM. Those are proof marks.

I have yet to see a Chinese gun explode in the hand of it owners, although I am sure it has happened. I have, however seen evidence of hundreds of guns from Europe and the US doing so, for various reasons.

Yes guns sometimes blow up due to barrel obstructions, incorrect ammunition, poor repairs, alterations and guns that are out of proof due to age or abuse. One of the methods to prevent gun blow ups is a standardized method of proof testing which the Chinese evidently do not have.

In one of your previous posts you mention that you will not be buying one based on internet reports and speculation...:confused:

Yes you're correct, all my gun purchasing decisions are based on what others have to say about the product because i'm not into the whole trial and error method but I can usually tell the difference between pure b.s and a truthful statement.
 
Own a Outlaw. I like it. Just ordered the Backpacker single too. I love guns without segragation. From the cheapest to the overpriced one, I love them all.
 
I bought one off a member here. It is tons of fun, and didnt break the bank. If I wanted a 5000 dolar fine english fowing piece, thats what I woud buy. Last I checked, nobody else offers a 12 inch side by side, so the outlaw is it, and it didnt break the bank!!!No regrets here!!
 
I ordered mine jan21, hoping i get it before reading week, somehow i doubt it.

i do hope this gun is decent, 300 wont get me the best, but it cant be that ####ty...
 
I like expensive gear. When I go out on a back pack hunting trip, I am wearing or carrying about $15K worth of guns, optics, clothes,pack, etc, just on my back.

I like nice guns and I don't mind paying for them, and at the same time I look down at some guns -especially if they are cheap pretenders.

To be clear-I am not above gun snobbery:cool:

However, I see no need to take the piss out of these outlaw shotguns. They are not pretenders in any way- They are inexpensive and fun. Who didn't watch western movies and want a sawed off shotgun? Who doesn't think that a $300 shotgun would be fun to blast stuff with? Or even leave in the truck during hunting season for an opportunistic shot at a grouse?

I've had a few Chinese firearms now, and I've never had any of them blow up. The Proof testing/safety issue isn't a real issue unless someone has some hard evidence that people are being put at risk by these firearms.

Unless they start blowing up (and I doubt they will except for the same reasons other shotguns blow up, like obstructed bores) why are we even discussing proof testing? There are millions of Chinese firearms in Canada, how many have blown up? I *do* vividly recall Sako barrels splitting like banana peels, though!:)

"Expensive" guns are not without failure.

I don't own a Outlaw shotgun, but it sure is tempting. Looks like lots of fun. It's a perfect candidate for a "change jar" gun- Count up your change and buy a gun. I've done it a few times before....

At the very least, owning a Outlaw shotgun will cause some nervous Nellies to cry "That is a prohibited weapon" and even better, it probably annoys some ant gun people.

Isn't that + fun enough to justify its' existence?:dancingbanana:
