... and start "pistol" hunting.
Wow. They can't have pistolas, but they can have Hoglegs. I dunno if I'm envious or not...
Here's my new wrist-breaker.
Kinda comes under the heading "Don't know what it's good for, but it's gonna be fun finding out!!"
A Remington 870 Express Magnum 12 Gauge with an 8.5 inch barrel. (OUCH!!)
How is this possible, you may ask??
Up here in Canada, these type of firearms are not under any kind of restriction so long as they came from the "factory" this way and are not an autoloader. This means you cannot take old Uncle George's pumpgun and pimp it out with a hacksaw.
The Canadian company that puts these out, Dlask Arms, manufactures the barrels for these, so they qualify as "factory" guns. Actually, a fair bit of work went into these blasters. Not only did they make new barrels, they had to shorten the mag tube and action bars. The forearm's been cut back and has rails installed. The rails don't seem to be good for much other than tearing off a few layers of skin. Gloves for sure if your planning any high volume shooting.
Pretty cool bear gun, eh?? The best part of this cannon is the "Smiley Face" on the end of the mag tube. HAVE A NICE DAY YOGI!!! BOOM!!!
I tried it out on the weekend. Not too bad with trap loads, but it kicks like an SOB with my 525gr. Lyman slugs. I haven't had the courage to try it with 3 inch shells yet. One step at a time, boys.
