The I LOVE THIS GUN Thread

very nice, pacecars

Gotta disagree with you on the pump being a disadvantage. I've taken too many doubles to count on ducks, geese, dove and have even got a triple on quail on a covey rise. I've also smoked their clay counterparts on the sporting clay field. There are some really fast gas guns (semi-autos) on the market now that will cycle way quick but the folks who can actually run them as fast as they will operate are few and far between.

The stoeger model 2000 I was referencing earlier is a copy of the benelli bolt system. Functions the same way, but they changed the blue prints enough so you cant swap between the two.

I don't expect the quality to be equal, but getting essentially the same operating system for $500 seems like a good deal.

I dunno if it's a copy of Inertia Drive... I looked at their website and from the badging, I'd bet it's a licensed copy. You may be right about the parts interchangeability though.

Nice stuff pacecars.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

They're owned by benelli too.

Thanks guys. I just got into motorcycles but have been at the guns for a long long time. Like I really needed another expensive hobby!:eek1

Yer welcome, we're here to help!

Awful pricey.

Might be hard for it to get a foothold and catch on. At least in the current state.

Well, I have an opinion, I neither think it is THAT pricy or that is it a good looking thing. Although, it would be fun to have. Like a 22 conversion, it has it's merits. I would like to try one on a specific frame I have first before buying one though for certain. I'll bet it is pretty much as they say. It would be great for three gun if the rules in your 3 gun match would allow it. Especially on a hi cap frame.

Don't know if it would work on a hicap frame, but if it did then yes, it would probably be good for 3 gun. That is what it is made for - racing of various types, and it would probably be good for bullseye. If you look at the cost of various competition guns, this is not expensive at all. Just don't try to shoot hot loads in it.

Must save on ammo when you just squash the varmints!

I'd be more interested if it were available in 10mm, but I'm weird like that.

Unless I am wrong, there is no difference in a hi cap 1911 rail and a Standard cap 1911 rail. Commander knows....??

Who makes a 1911 that shoots .357 mag!?

Maybe it just eats .357 mag???

Call 'em in close and use a bayonet!

Coonan Arms used to....

They still do.
