My Remington 870

Nice! You showed me on AIM what it looked like with the stock, but it looks pretty damn cool with the pistol grip. Push forward with the hand on the pump and pull back with the hand on the grip. It cuts the muzzle flip down. And rest your elbow on your chest with your elbow bent. Most pistol grip guns (mainly pistols... xP) are better shot with your arm straight, but try holding a shotgun with two hands and keep your right arm straight. It's not easy and very awkward to try and aim with.

I tried chest level. It's not too bad, but the pistol grip really digs into my thumb. After shooting most of the afternoon, I'd started developing a blister.

Here's mine. I have a factory folding stock for it. Bought it before buying the gun. Couldn't bring myself to change the stocks. So I'll pick up a beater Wingmaster in the future.

Wow, that's sweet man. The bluing and wood go well together. For some reason though, the models where the mag tube sticks out farther than the barrel bother the crap out of me. Yours looks like it has a 7+1 shot tube though and I don't think they make a perfectly portioned barrel to flush it out. All the same it's a gorgeous old school looking shotgun.

Thanks, yours looks great too. Mine has the 20" barrel with a 3 shot extension. They make a 18.5" barrel versus the 18" so the 2 shot extension doesn't stick past the barrel. But no such luck with them making a 20.5" barrel, so have to deal with it sticking out. It bothered me at first, but 3 more shots is 3 more shots. Mine originally didn't come with the extension. Took a while to find a factory blued 3-shot.

Also I took pics of the rest my long guns.

The only guns missing from the page is my Beretta 92FS Inox and Colt Challenger, forgot to take a pic of them.

Wow you have a neat collection there. I didn't know the MKI Desert Eagle was yours.

My buddy is looking for a .308 Battle Rifle much like your L1A1. He even wants optics on it too. What make is the rifle/optics? How much have you shot it? Are you satisfied with it?

I haven't been able to shoot the DE lately. No .357 ammo. Wouldn't mind getting one in a 44, but will probably get a 4" S&W Model 29 first.


I haven't researched to whether my rifle is British or Australian. Could be a mix of both. The receiver is IMBEL from what I read, it's one of the better ones to be built on.(I think DSA is suppose to be the best. But they are all new manufacture.) I have shot around 200 rounds through it. The only problem was a FTE with a certain type of ammo. Adjusted the gas setting, cycled fine. The scope is a Bushnell Trophy. It cost $100. The gun cost $650, I'm trying to find some wood furniture for it, then give the gun a repaint. I've been very satisfied with it. It's a heavy gun, but also a heavier caliber so that's to be expected. I'd go to battle with it.

Very nice collection, I'm impressed.
