Showoff your SHORTY 12G SHOTTY (14" or under and Mods)!

Finally received the long-awaited Kyn-Shot Recoil-Reducing Stock-Tube from Brownell's this past week. What a difference at the range!! It is like night and day - .12 ga slugs feel like .410 Bird-shot!!!






I must say my friend you ALWAYS post the coolest guns! You are a true legend!
 
Oh nuts, my 590A1 went through the wash and shrank!

Downsized my 20" to a 14". Think I'll hit it with some paint tomorrow :cool:

Thanks now just need to wait for stock! Very clean build you have there, very envious!

Thanks, but I have changed the configuration a bit since that photo. The L shaped handstop on the fore end turned out to be a terrible idea on a 12 Ga. shotgun, so it is gone. I have also removed the birdshead grip and installed a Magpul SGA stock. I will miss the very short length of the original configuration, but unless I am willing to put in lots more practice I am not able to be very accurate without a full stock.

The smoothest pump gun I own. Shhhhh... she's Turkish. I cerakoted the metal, added new plastic furniture, mounted a waterproof laser, and installed a King's Arms shot shell holder. 100% reliable and super easy to clean. I can carry 4 in the tube, 1 in the chamber, 6 in the saddle and 2 on the stock. 13 on hand for whatever comes my way and a spiked mag cap for good measure!

Remove mag cap, out comes barrel, slide off bolt carrier and bolt. Done. 10 seconds. Easy cleaning!

Newest acquisition -870 Express with Dlask 8.5" conversion, nickel coated (bolt, pins and trigger group to be replaced with Rem Marine versions - it also needs some type of forend extension/handstop to be shootable):

I'm looking forward to taking this one to the range very soon for the first time. It makes the 14" 870s seem really long and awkward by comparison.

Update (Rem Marine trigger group, S&J jumbo safety, Magpul AFG) works great with Federal L.E. reduced recoil flight control 00 buck, 5" pattern at 18yds and super comfortable to shoot in this configuration:

I'm more of a Mossberg guy, but those older Wingmasters are awesome and look great as 14" shorties.
