Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Cheap Shotgun!

I see Blackheart, the faqqot claiming to be a gunsmith, is back trolling for cock.

Wow, doesn't seem like you contribute much to the conversation in knowledge/expertise but are pretty handy with childish insults. Congratulations ?

Especially one with a lifetime warranty

Didn't know they had one in El Paso, but I only get down there a couple times a year. Will put it on the agenda next time.

And yet another imbecile with a pack mentality and no knowledge to contribute shows up. What a surprise and how unusual at the fire. Idiot. I started as an apprentice gunsmith in 1992. Have worked for/with 4 other smiths and two manufacturers since. Currently employed as a full time pistolsmith. At this point I have built several thousand high end/ custom 1911's. My entire years production was pre sold by the end of January and I recently completed an order for several hundred guns from a large law enforcement agency. If my guns weren't pretty good my paychecks wouldn't keep coming but they do..I'm sure your credentials are far more impressive and you can offer much more informed advice ?

Cool looking shorty there!
It's my understanding that our Canadian Brethren don't have to pay an outrageous $200 Registration Fee or wait for nearly a year like we do here to own a SBS.

It opened on Sept. 14th.

Give me a heads up when you do come down here.

I am not an expert on shot guns for sure
but from a previous post of Barrys I made a couple purchases from CBC

thier shipping is very fast and they are really great to do business with
The guns I bought function very well

Anybody bought one of the automatics that they are selling?

Hey, a new thread theme.

I certainly will. Possibly in November. My brother lives North of Cruces and is huntin'/shootin' fool so I'll have to go see him while there.

Interesting

Rockinbbar - thanks for the head's up. Been keeping a lookout for a cheap shorty 12 ga.

well, I bought a bargain foreign made shotgun about 20 years ago.

biggest piece of sheit I ever owned.
just try to talk to the person who answers the phone at the factory in turkey
to get your "lifetime warranty".
I bought an Italian muzzleloader once,
took 6 months to get an answer to my email,
sent an immediate reply, parts request
still haven't heard back from them, years later.

chlinstructor;
Good evening sir, I hope the day was a good one for you and this finds you and yours well.

The short answer is no we don't have to pay a registration fee for short barreled firearms, but of course being Canada there are rules.....

The barrel has to be a factory barrel, that is you or a gunsmith can't shorten it to less than 18½". The overall length of the arm has to exceed 26½" and it can't be "designed to be fired with one hand".

It can't be a semi- auto they need to be 18½" barrels, but pumps, levers, bolts and hinge are fine, so we see shotguns with barrels as short as 10" up here.

As mentioned I briefly considered a 13" model they had, but this one is surprisingly louder for the shooter than the 18½" one above it. We typically do our practice and drills with the heavier, more user friendly Lakefield Mossbergs and then I shoot the shorty enough to remain proficient with it, but I'm really needing to find a better recoil pad sooner than later for it.

Hopefully that answered the question a bit, I was going to say made sense, but Canuck firearm laws don't so I didn't go there....

All the best to you all this fall and good luck on your hunts too.

If it's your money, then as far as I'm concerned you can spend it anyway you want to. I don't think Barry said that they were plated in gold, or had silver lined barrels, or anything like that. He just said it was very good price on a shotgun, which it is.

Good price for a cheap shotgun.

It's always tempting to go for the cheapie deal, but you do tend to get what you pay for. Another Turkish line that comes to mind are the Hatfield semi-autos sold at Wal-Mart for $225.00. They're poorly made. The forestocks are very prone to splitting in two. I work at Wal-Mart and talk to the sporting goods guys. They've had a lot of people bring them back. Kind of like the Charles Dailey's they used to carry. I'd rather buy a used 870, 500, or 1400 than one of these.

Well, here's another probable imbecile (don't know about any pack mentality). Got started as an apprentice (to myself) gunsmith in 1962 but my resume is peanuts (or less) compared to what Blackheart posts. Then again, I've known and, at times, worked with a number of very high-quality gunsmiths - professional and amateur - and some well-known. To a man, all have been self-secure, supportive, well-spoken, courteous gentlemen. Can't help but wonder if success as gunsmiths brought out those fine traits.
