Newbie shotgun questions (RE: best model for me)

[Wendell]

Yes.

Does anybody ever (on here, like in the EE) sell things like, a "package" type of deal? For example, a Mossy 500, Rem 870, or Win Defender, and like 2 barrels and some chokes?

^^^ thanks for that! Saw the Mossy combo before, however I was not aware of the Norinco. Are Norc shotguns any good? I know that their 1911's are about as reliable as an AK, but what about their other products? Do the Norinco shotguns come with chokes of any kind?

Also, anybody know if that Norc takes 2 3/4 or 3"?

If $ are a priority, I suggest you look at the Mossberg 535 combo. Comes with a rifled, sighted barrel and a longer vent-rib barrel with 3 choke tubes. Both barrels chambered 3 1/2", so will handle 2 3/4", 3", or 3 1/2" shells.

All for a bit over $300 new.

That sounds pretty darn good! Wonder if there is a kit to make it tacitcool with a shorter barrel (if I so desire one day!)

Do you know who sells them (the combos....cabela's has the gun itself)? I would like to see the pricing etc...

EDIT: They do carry the combo.... wood stock. 389$ I think.

 

[emilio613]

Should probably ask, does anyone know if the Norc shotguns take chokes? Or do any of the tactical shotguns out there take them? I would love to have the same receiver that mount to a decent length barrel with a choke, and then the ability to switch over to a 12-14" barrel for bear country protection/range action etc.

My DA Grizzly 12.5 with GRS has removable chokes, came with a modified. Not sure about the hp-9's but i dont think so. Suppose a gunsmith could do the job to one.

Really? Do you know if you can buy longer barrels for that gun too? I would look into one if I could! (that way I could get what I want, one short and one long barrel)

Both the (14" barrel) Norinco HP9-1 and the (12.5" barrel) Dominion Arms Grizzly will accept a barrel that will fit a Remington 870.

LOL thanks for the humour What I meant, was "does anybody have one on here?", out of the people reading this thread. I mean, if someone suggested it, I was hoping they would have experience with it.

Just a restatment, for a gun that you will shoot lots & want to keep go Mossberg set ot Rem set. I find resale of some others slower (around Here). Also a standard 1 barrel can be added to sometime in the future. I noticed a Mos. 930 semi set in EE for $500. a very good gun.
