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.
my own preference has always been for cylinder bore 12 gauge loaded with #9s (or kosher salt - for the large crystals, not religious reasons): it's usually sufficient to deter most home invaders and it doesn't go through two sheets of 3/8" sheetrock to my child's bedroom on the other side of the wall and should a follow-up be required, there's always the 1911 .45 ACP in my other hand
I have an 870 Wingmaster that has an 18.5" barrel, a birdshead grip with an extended magazine tube loaded with 2 & 5/8" S&B 00 buckshot. It has a 10" pattern at 15'.
I got to messing around reloading some of these and I settled on 2 3/4" #1 Buck. 16 pellets per round and each one of the little dears is a 30 cal projectile going downrange. Looks real nice on a patterning board.
On the Hunter stock the rear sling connection is on the side and can't be seen with the sling located as it is. There is no front connection because it would be on the side too. So, the only way it makes sense, as shown, is if it is a single point of connection on the stock, under the sling.
Just guessing here, but the rubber bands keep the sling neat and tidy for storage purposes. Once deployed, you can rip the sling out of the bands and throw it over your head. I have a similar set-up on my AR in the safe....my theory being that should I need to quickly grab it, the sling is less likely to hang up on the other guns in the safe.
Too heavy and bulky. And what happens to the light cord when you're in a hurry, grab the fore end, and cycle the action?

I have several handguns in my home defense system, but a shotgun is not a bad idea.

Not seeing the benefit of rubber banding the sling to the stock. I say either use it properly or remove.
ReplyDelete+1-it just doesn't make sense, unless it's anchored where one cannot see it.

Always nitpickers to a man's tools. If this tool hammers a nail, the nail ain't getting up. Agree?
