Dream Shotgun

Rjeezie · December 15, 2012, 05:11 PM

What's your dream shot and what for (hunting, HD, etc.)?

Creek Henry · December 15, 2012, 06:15 PM

One of those $25K perazzis. They looks amazing. I'd settle for a higher end Blaser O/U though.

rcase1234 · December 15, 2012, 06:22 PM

Benelli Vinci in Max 4 camo for Waterfowl. I'm sure I could get one eventually just don't have the funds right now to drop that kind of $ on a shotgun

tAKticool · December 15, 2012, 07:34 PM

Well first off let me address the fact you cannot have such a simple thing as an autoloading shotgun with a pistol grip protrusion.

So Benelli is almost all out of the equation, a lot of others, out... those that have conventional stock autos w/ tactical options often skimp or overcharge etc.

So for me, I'd be ECSTATIC with a Benelli M3 Convertible or a Benelli M4 with conventional stocks... In 2010 or maybe? Early 2011, Benelli apparently "accidentially" listed the ComfortTech stock on an M3 and had graphics featuring it... I had money and called up to order, they refused and said I was wrong. I got hung up on. I called back, they said I was wrong, I told them to look it up, they said no way., I finally got a really nice supervisor, she LOADED THE DARNED INTERNET SITE UP and said, Oh yeah, look at that... Shoot. Well you can't have it. I'll get back to you. And a few days later I get told, some kid made his own graphics and uploaded them without permsission but they could not honor it. And my point is, YOU CAN'T JUST TAKE A COMFORTECH AND STICK IT ON AN m3, *it will fit and be fine NJ legal etc* , Yeah, no , sorry. we hate you and btw You Suck!!

So The M3 Convertible is amazing, the M4 is the M1014 Joint Service Combat Shotgun... if I could have either I'd be ecstatic. Especially with the collapsible pistol-grip-stock... Mmm mm... amazing.

Past that, there are a few Remington 870 Police's ive seen that looked amazing ,same with the 11-87.. I'd love an 1187 Police, or an 870P ... I'd also love the parkerizing but maybe the Marine versions also... I alwasy thought alothough I love Mossberg parkerizing, the 590A1SPX in Marine would be so cool.

rcase1234 · December 15, 2012, 07:56 PM

Takticool, are you trying to tell me a Vinci can't be my dream shotgun?

CAOxInfinity · December 15, 2012, 08:05 PM

For hunting/defense/sport...

Saiga 12.

Drummer101 · December 15, 2012, 08:49 PM

A blued/wood 870 Police Magnum. That and a nice Winchester 1897 riot gun.

SPEMack618 · December 16, 2012, 12:20 AM

An Ithaca '37 riot gun, with the four shot tube and slug sights.

A Remington 870 Police Riot Magnum with the five shot tube and wodden furniture.

A Model 1897 in trench configuartion.

jmortimer · December 16, 2012, 12:25 AM

SLP/SX3/Maxus with Sure Cycle - I want soft recoil and fastest cycling and max reliability

BlackWorksInc · December 16, 2012, 12:37 AM

I kind of have my dream shotgun right now, I really am loving my UTS-15 (I'd say HD, Combating Zombies, and Sport

). Its almost how I want it, just missing one or two bits to be honest.

But I'd love to have an nice rustic O/U, a little weathered, wood not cracked or broken, something with nostalgic character ya know?

Beach boy · December 16, 2012, 12:44 AM

Strictly utilitarian HD / SD /GP

MOSSBERG 590A1 12G, 18.5", GHOST RING SIGHTS, COMPACT STOCK

And if they were still available without being classified as Destructive Devices, a USAS-12 with a dozen 20 round drums and 2 dozen 10 round stick mags!

Rob228 · December 16, 2012, 12:46 AM

I'm rather easy to please, I'd like an older 1100 Skeet with high grade wood.

Sphawley · December 16, 2012, 03:54 AM

Benelli Supersport...Somthing about that gun that I just LOVE!!!

I will get one...one day...

darkgael · December 16, 2012, 06:20 AM

Perazzi MX2000 O/U. For Trap and Skeet.

Backwoodsboy · December 16, 2012, 08:23 AM

A new win 1300 w/ rifled barrel and rifle sights. Was the 1st firearm I ever bought and unfortunately the 1st one I ever sold. Still kicking myself in the behind for that bonehead move

CurlyQ.Howard · December 16, 2012, 08:28 AM

J.C. Higgins 16 gauge bolt action shotgun model 583.14. Like my dad bought in the 1940s. When he sold it, after decades of use, he actually tripled his money. Now that's a shotgun!

B.L.E. · December 16, 2012, 01:31 PM

A recoil-less 8 gauge that shoots free ammo.

Jim Watson · December 16, 2012, 01:39 PM

I wish I had my MT6 back. I don't shoot a lot of shotgun these days, but it would be great to have for the occasional outing.

A friend has a Benelli Ultra Light that I really like as a handy hunting gun.

Strafer Gott · December 16, 2012, 02:31 PM

SxS 12, wood and blue, some engraving, some case hardened colors, external hammers, and then I wake up. Doctor, can I be helped?

PJR · December 16, 2012, 03:15 PM

If you are going to dream then you might as well dream big. I'd like one of these:

B.L.E. · December 16, 2012, 03:44 PM

Perfect, a shotgun so beautiful and valuable that I wouldn't dare use it.

About the only thing you are allowed to do with a shotgun like that is to build a fancier display case for it.

Beach boy · December 16, 2012, 04:55 PM

Well, while we're dreaming, here's a nice SXS with some extra stuff -

dgludwig · December 16, 2012, 09:13 PM

I hunt mostly grouse and woodcock in typical upland environs, so a nice handling, light-weight, well-finished, 20 gauge sxs, bored imp cyl/mod would constitute my "dream" shotgun. So I woke up and bought a Merkel Model 147 EL several years ago and no longer have to pinch myself to see if I'm awake or dreaming.

Scout · December 16, 2012, 09:32 PM

I would love one of the newer Ithaca 37's.
