Dominion Arms 1897 trench shotgun!!

Canada Tail - I like your footer. It is right on and refers to our fallen comrade bless his and all others memories. Thanks for that. 2LT (Retired) Air Reserve.
 
Can I ask what's so special about this particular shotgun that everyone in here would rather have one than date a supermodel?

I don't know anything about shotguns (don't own any shotgun at all, only shot a pump action once); to me the DA grizzly look way cooler and were only 200$ on sale a few weeks ago, but really, I know squat about shotguns.

So what's so great about this one? Is it just the bayonnet?
 
Hey Vinn ! They were used in ww1 in the trenches much to the horror of the opposition . They even contested the useage. In close range they could put up a wall of lead that no man could pass. Some could even shoot down hand gernades thrown by the attacking forces. They were also used in the jungle with great efects. In close quarter combat they are a force mutiplyer . You don't realy need to aim with it !just point and fire ! The great thing with a trench type shot gun is its trigger you just hold it depressed and pump it untill its empty . There something mistical when you can dump ( fire) the hole tube just wow !:shotgun::shotgun::shotgun::shotgun::shotgun::shotgun:

Ha, ok, thanks, didn't know about that. Sounds cool. I'd still choose a date with Cindy Crawford over one of these, but definitely sounds cool to try at least once.
 
3 main attractions for this gun:
History - WWI trench warfare, John Moses Browning. Almost fought as many wars as 'Merica has, almost.
Form - Look at it, iconic and militaristic yet not mall ninja.
Function - Tube fed pump shotty's long service history until present time speaks volume for its effectiveness.
 
As pictured, and well manufactured, I'm in. Remchokes would be a plus. (I know, I know. Blasphemy. But it'd still be nice)
