FN Police Shotgun - exact specs
After reading some old posts on rec.guns by the Fulton Armory boys stating that the FN Police Shotgun was no where close to being the same thing as the Winchester 1300 Defender (even went as far as saying Winchester had copied the FN??) - I decided to see what FN had to say about it.
My email from FN confirms they are exactly the same except for:
That's all - no metal trigger group like the 870 Police models get or a heavier barrel like the Mossberg military model - they are essentially the same except for the choke threads. Considering you can get one for $329, they are a nice buy since you'd be above that just trying to get the parkerized finish added to the Winchester. |

FN Police Model
I purchased one of the FN Shotguns this summer after seeing one on the Fulton Armory site. So far I like it for Home Defense use. I have only put about fifty rounds down the Tube. The 3 in. Mag. slug loads are a real sludgehammer to the shoulder with this gun! I keep the mag tube topped off with 00 buck for standby service.
