Gun purchases thread.

My father gave me the Winchester 1300 (that he bought from a family friend after her husband died) that had been sitting in the safe, unused, for several years


It looks almost exactly like this one here

I've wanted one of those for so long.

Yeah they are hard to find right now. Don't know if it's the parts kits or the receivers that's holding them up. May be a combination of both. There's a few of these on GB right now if you want to go that route.

The '74 is already paid for. I'm getting tired of waiting for it

I can't wait to get in some range time with the 1300. I'm going to the indoor range today , so I might get to shoot it a bit, but that depends on if they allow shotguns (I don't exactly know what their rules are). I'm going to raise hell about that '74 while I'm there, since the range is connected to the gunshop I ordered it from.

Get your money back.

Bastards wouldn't let me shoot the 1300 without buying some heavily marked up ammo from them


While I was at the range, I picked up a new ProMag made magazine for my 459

[S&Wshooter]

After I handled and examined it for a bit, I've come to the conclusion that the 1300 feels more "solid" than any other shotgun I have handled, ever.

I'm going to get a Mosin Nagant for the hell of it. Mostly cause I really like it, the cost, etc
