Fedarm FRX Pump Action Shotgun

I have one in the mail on route. Ill let you know my thoughts when it arrives likely in a weeks time. I am not expecting to be impressed but the experience justifies the small cost
 
As promised

It is a cheap turkish pump gun. That said fit and finish is well above expected. Its smooth slick and solid lock up. Dual action bars. Not rattly at all. It fits great with the vertical grip being soft and positively grippy. No machine marks. 15 and 20 yard patterns with trap load and #4 are actually better than my beretta a400 cyl choke pattern. The gun is light and points well
The mag tube feeds positively and doesnt take the end of your thumb with it while loading. It ate 7 in the tube without trouble and kept consistent pressure even with only 1 shell. Extraction was effortless and empties landed about 3' to the right when worked fast. Working the action slowly was also smooth with no troubles

The negatives are the ramp front post is black. I added some white nail polish and its a tremendous improvement. The forearm is long. It took a bit to line it up to reseat the barrel. It comes apart easily and the bolt appears better then other cheap pumps. No tooling marks and a nice even finish. The mag tube stop bar seems thin but also solid. I cant see any issues with it bending
All in all its a light smooth pump well worth its asking price

I apologize if this reply seems jumbled im waiting for a nice buck to cross a field and a ditch so i can test these new platinum areo tips
