here is my newest toy, a remington 870 tactical 12 gauge
Not quite the germans favorite kind of gun…nice toy you got :mrgreen:
hehe, you thought a Kar98 or StGw 44 would fit better, did you? :mrgreen:
shotguns are quite popular among sport-shooters here, but our hunters disregard the pump-guns as some sort of gangster-guns. hunting has a very strong traditional aspect over here … but I have to admit that a side-by-side or over-and-under shotgun has greater precision compared to a normal pump action. I have shot all of them on an indoor-range at moving targets.
anyway, a pump-action is MUCH COOLER!

That was my point.

I know that.

The pump action here is prefered for self defense in rural areas and for “wilde sau” hunting with slug ( we called the shotgun slugs breneke, you know why)
two days ago I sold my trp"s to my employers for bill purposes but got my springfield defender back frm family to replace them for duty use. my next quandry is zeroing 4 aks. they dont zero the way a brit,us ,german does. they fire 5 shots then average the center zone for size.
any nam vet who defied the westmoreland reg could you please advise?
Not exactly the same model but close enough, try here - or here for the English page.
Edited to remove an extraneous link.
Some pictures of my IGA over and under 12 gauge with 76mm chamber and the Norinco JW 15 22 magnum.
Okay, just a little update: My newest toy - a Ruger 10/22 Target Rifle, chambered in .22l.r.

Beautiful, is that a supressor or a heavy barrel ? 
Hehe, supressor. 
We can`t even dream of this over here. Yep, it is indeed the so-called “hammer forged bull barrel”.
BTW: Due to the whole anti-gun-discussion I will make a pause in buying new guns - nobody knows what will come up, allthough many politicians see that the gun laws are strict enough. But if some guys don`t take care of them …
Anyway - just some days before the terrible shooting, I aquired a ROMAK-3/PSL (or better known as the civil-version, Cugir SSG 97) in .308 Win. It is romanian some-sort-of-sniper-rifle that looks similar to a Dragunov, but has a different interior, more common to the AKM. In addition, there is cool PSO-scope on this little beast (8x42).
Pics will follow.

Hehe, supressor.
Okay; I ve asked because sometime ago I saw In showcase a made in Germany Mauser .22lr rifle, and it had a threaded muzzle for supressor, so I assumed that supressors were legal in Germany . I know in the neighbour France are legal even they are required in some parts of the country.

Just a Ruger Mini-14 5.56mm --mostly for plinking…
I might apply for my pistol permit though -which is actually fairly tedious to get in New York State. However, I think that is a good thing…

Nice collection Dixie, but I do prefer a scattergun for snakes.
I have an Ithaca 37 Featherlite 12 gauge with a short 18" barrel that works a lot better on snakes but it is much easier to carry the Sig so I usually just leave the Ithaca at the house.
I’ve probably posted this before, but at my age I can’t remember what breakfast is for; when it is; where to have it; or if I’ve had it 
, but for snakes and general use in a country where these two calibres would kill anything I encountered the best gun I ever had was a Savage over and under .22 Magnum / .410.
Thumb on the hammer and finger on the slide selector for the barrel and I had it all available as I raised it to my shoulder.
Never needed a 12G for anything, and never had anyone with me with a 12G who shot anything I couldn’t with a .410.
Possibly because I shot things with the .22 Magnum that they were shooting, or trying to shoot, with a 12G.
I have an Ithaca 37 Featherlite 12 gauge with a short 18" barrel that works a lot better on snakes but it is much easier to carry the Sig so I usually just leave the Ithaca at the house.
Obviously it is, but snakes put me really nervous, so I cant him them with a handgun.
Around here there are some special short over and under 32 gauge shotguns, very handy with snakes, with and without legs.

Never seen one of those before. I am saving up at the moment to buy a Taurus Judge and it should be the ultimate snake gun. A five shot 410/.45 Long Colt is the perfect combination in my book.
