    There are some ban-happy gun/shooting/hunting sites in Ok.

    Ok, how could they detect "me" over my smartphone (a T-Mobile data connection) even after banning another account over a local ISP? I don't think they dropped the "second" T-Mobile-generated account based on IP detection. Is your mobile telephone carrier going to use the same IP address for...

    Noharleyyet, you posted that to try to "tee me off", didn't you? :unsure:

    There are some ban-happy gun/shooting/hunting sites in Ok.

    I did not use "Tom Terrific" at the other sites but something else made up. All I did was politely introduce myself and ask about local ranges to shoot in SW Oklahoma, specifically Lawton/Fort Sill area. I made the comment about there being no indoor shooting range in Lawton, Comanche Co., SW...

    There are some ban-happy gun/shooting/hunting sites in Ok.

    There are only two Oklahoma-specific unnamed forum websites for guns and hunting. I got booted out the 'shooters' site in short order for supposedly "having more than one account". A case of mistaken identity. I then tried to take out a new account at the same "shooters" site over my smartphone...

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    My gunsmith tried that in his shop already. Won't stick to my Mossy aluminum receiver made circa 1990.

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    The gun was made circa 1990 according to running the serial number. I don't beat my guns anyway. The extra choke (I/C) he pulled out had a damaged skirt and the smith did not recommend using it so I tossed it at home. He said I could use ordinary automotive grease on choke tube threads if I want...

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    Good news! My local gunsmith saved my barrel yesterday. He pulled the choke tube out of the chamber of the field barrel. It was an Improved Cylinder. No damage to the chamber thankfully. It passed his inspection so its safe to shoot. Is for the scratched on the LH side of the recover. He didn't...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    A lot of public hunting areas in Oklahoma allow only archery or shotgun during deer seasons. Slugs only. No buckshot. My interest is in taking only does with guns. There are limited opportunities to take antlerless deer with guns on WMA's in Sooner state. Some WMA's forbid taking antlerless deer...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    I checked out a couple Savage 220 videos. The guy says this is a 160-yard point-blank deer gun even with the crappier-grouping slugs. This Savage is about $700 retail and groups several MOA but still "minute of deer" in most woods shooting situations. No, it won't ever shoot nearly as tight as...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    I think the Savage 220 should be a great woods deer gun. I can't see it on the plains for 'lope or buff though. Elk and moose? I don't own any revolvers, 4" barrels or longer. I have a Smith .38 snubbie plus a Glock 45 9mm and a Smith Governor revolver now on mail order. The Glock 9mm is a 4.02"...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    Southern Oklahoma, WMA and OLAP lands primarily .... most deer lands don't allow rifles during gun seasons but they do allow shotgun slugs ... if I were to get a Savage 220, I forgo getting a traditional deer rifle, in say .308, altogether. I don't think this 220 in 20 ga. kicks any harder...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    I checked out the Savage 220 slug gun. About $700 and she's a 20 gauge. How is the recoil as compared with a typical .308 bolt action rifle? I think now a serious slug gun is a must have in shotgun-only deer states and in states where rifles are banned on most public access hunting lands for big...

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    The barrel to receiver fit is not precise on pump shotguns. It's certainly not tight as on a barreled action for bolt rifles. For consistency and accuracy, we need the scope attachment rigid with respect to the barrel. We need the scope to consistently point with respect to where the barrel...

    Very well then. To quote the dingbat of a short-haired blonde with the little boy in the Pinto beater, "OVER, DONE WITH, GONE."

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    But I do have one more question: may I safely use the very Leupold scope model I already own on my Mossberg 500 shotgun?

    Is there a good scope you like for your shotgun with a cantilever slug barrel?

    The scope should be of good quality and hold up to shotgun recoil. It should have the proper eye relief as well. What scope model/brands do you like for deer hunting with a slug gun in the woods? As a matter of fact I own a two-year-old unused Leupold rifle scope already. I bought it for a Ruger...

    Good things come to those who dig really deep!

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    The guns made in the 1990's were most likely made by baby boomers and older generations. The seller says that he doesn't have any prepaid shipping labels. I asked him if he will then reimburse me for the return shipping and I told him also that his grade from me at Gunbroker will depend upon...

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    I'm negotiating a return on the gun right now. The seller is offering to give me a full refund for the gun but has not yet agreed to provide me a prepaid shipping label yet. Here is the seller's email to me: Tom; I plead guilty on the choke tube. I never had a chance to test fire that gun,so...

    I just received my pre-owned 1990-vintage Mossberg 500A1 via Internet order today but some bad news!

    Well, it must be a good piece of chit to have taken that much game. I know the scratch on the side of my gun and the misplaced choke tube aren't Mossberg & Sons' fault. I bought two new Mossy pumps in the 1990's and know that for a fact, Jack. The rubber recoil pad on my latest Mossy is also...
