Bad picture, but you get the idea. Mossy with 18" bbl sidesaddle and weaponlight

Experimenting with the AFG. It helps tuck in solid and it's an easy position to work the light from.
Feels good, works great, but it's probably coming off because I think it looks like a joke.

How do you like that mossberg, I heard mixed reviews, my buddy almost bought one, but at the last minute he opted up, WAY UP, and bought the FN MK1 SLP. Its nasty, but I think anything over a grand for a shotgun is crazy, esspecially when a $400 870 will get it done all day. But Im a minimalist I guess...Nice kits guys, and I may have to take you up on the 3 gun opportunity jesse, Im gonna be outta town for a bit over the next few weeks for work but Ill be online and in touch.

Not sure if you were asking me, but I have always had great luck with my Mossbergs. I carried a Model 500 in the field bird hunting for a number of years and it was a workhorse. This one, I haven't shot as much but still trust it as my HD shotgun.
They aren't "3-gun fancy" but they work for what they are.
Oh I have nothing bad to say about Mossber shotguns, imho they are reliable and functional. But the 930 seems to be a step in a different direction. Just wondering if it paid off. I really like the look and the price is reasonable compared to some of the big boys. Just wondering how it stacks up functionally.

My Moss 930 was pretty "sticky" in the beginning but after 200 rounds I think I worked most of the kinks out. It's the newer version with the round knurled bolt knob
The front sight is straight, the trigger group and forend is tight, but the magazine extension tube would bind on occasion.
It's been a robust reliable semiauto, so at this price point I can handle it being a little rough around the edges. I would definitely buy another one if mossberg would ever come out with their competition model.

Took a couple of months to find someone with one. Once I got it built up, I gave my niece the RH one. The earlier talk about lefties using RH carbines made sense after I tried it out, but the LH 870 seems easier to me to reload off the side saddle. This is something that could be overcome by training and practice, but I'm happy.

View attachment 2514 My dad bought this Remington 870 back in the early 80's and handed it down to me last year. You can't tell from the pics but this things finish and wood are PERFECT! Shoots straight for me but I think it's cursed cause he never managed shoot a deer with it.

That tube seems short to be on one of your shotguns Jesse. You need a +9 on it.

Can you only install the Extension on one cylinder of the XRail?Jesse Tischauser said:
I think it would be awesome to take one of the 14" SBS Benellis and do the fully integrated XRail on it. Then you'd have a short HD shotty with 12 +/- round of 12ga loaded.

My 14" HD shotgun has a compact XRail on it. It holds 14.
You can't put tubes on every one if the XRail tubes because the followed have a catch on them that hits the release button causing it to rotate and reload the gun. I already had planned on putting four tubes on it but that dead quickly. I was hoping for a 45+ round Benelli that weighed 30 lbs.
