And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
No problem with the hand slipping, RHT447, I practiced pumping another "gun" when I was a teenager and a firm but gentle grip was required then, so I'm good with my Remington 870 now.
Nice rig. A few things to keep in mind when setting one up--
ReplyDeleteOn a pump action, stay away from anything that might allow the forward hand to slip off and in front of the muzzle on the forward stroke.
Barrel porting is nice, but it can play hob with your night vision.

ReplyDeleteWell done. Just thought I'd mention it as there are always folks new to the game. The issue can get dicey with some of the 'bullpup' designs.
DeleteYeah bogside, but you DID want slippage with that practice. Am I right, or am I right? Apples and oranges.
ReplyDeleteYou still talking bout that 870?
DeleteAt the tender age of 15 a little slippage sweetened the pot, bart!
ReplyDeleteAnd now?
DeleteI leave it to my 25 year old lady friend to rack the slide back.
DeleteNow now boys, remember: "This is my rifle, this is my gun...."
ReplyDeleteOK, that one got by me. "Gun". Got it. You so funny GI.
