[lerch641]

Huh? What's the make and model?

 

[sin]

I bought my first ever shotgun, Chares daly 301 with side folding stock. Is that what you ask?

I assume one of the Turkish folding shotguns that are pumps with a magazine?

I'm going to guess that he's referring to the new Turkish shotgun, I think it's called a Wolverine? The receivers fold in half, similar to a break action, but its a pump.

Ok, maybe I am missing something here .....

Why would I want my pump shotgun to be folding?? So that it is a smaller package for transporting??

Yes easily folded to stow, and perhaps a bit easier to clean and service.
Something different for the collection and a conversation piece at the range. That's all I've got.....

Because it's almost as cool as the original

there are lots of "back packer" folding/take down guns but i've never seen a pump before
ease of storage and transportation would be my main interest.

Agreed that the market isn't huge but i think its enough for them to make some money

We see a lot of demand for takedowns and folding firearms …. I think the appeal is often regional; someone in a rural area where they might just store a shotgun in the back of their large truck, likely won’t see much appeal. City folk going through condo elevators and packing their guns into smaller commuter cars will likely be more interested. Plus, anyone needing to focus on smaller storage spaces like on a boat, float plane or hiking backpack might be more interested.

Clearly, there’s a market for this sort of stuff as takedown models have been quite popular. This would have an advantage over the folding single shot shotguns out there.

Ok ... ok .... I get it ... but I still prefer my Tac-14 in the shotgun scabbard ... small package .... lightweight ... nobody knows what it is ... and much easier to deploy .... and my Tac-14 kills those birds and hares as well as any shotgun ....

Personal preference I guess ....

Looks pretty cool, who stocks them?

 

[infidel29]

First I've heard of this. Wonder what the quality is like? Turk guns are hit/miss.

Here’s a couple places … could be more places that stock them.
