Off Season Lets Talk Guns, Part 2

Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.


Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon?



Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware?

Ithaca make a quality shotgun. I dont really see a big need to be chambered for 3in loads. Some guys after the Snows or Canadians sometimes want that to reach out a bit farther I dont buy it. Also Turkey some think they need 3 in magnums or the bird will shed the shot. I have killed everything I needed with 2-3/4. Just my 2 cents.

Oh did your friend shoot skeet or trap? Thats always somewhat a concern for condition of the barrel. Also steel shot through older shotguns for waterfoul.

He belongs to a skeet club, and is also an avid bird hunter... dudes smoked pheasant is something to behold

I would do some bird hunting with it, but am mostly looking at it as a bargain home defense option... semi auto over pump is the main selling point so far

What Canadians are your people shooting down there, lessers? 3inch is necessary for Canadians and 3 1/2 is optimal. I will never load 2 3/4 in for anything larger than a Buffy.

Should work well for either of those. Whats the barrel choked in or is it new enough to have variable choke.

Pretty sure its choked in, its an aftermarket modified barrel, theres a little 'mod' stamped on the barrel

To be perfectly honest, theres a lot I do not know about firearms outside of military experience... first ever firearm I actually owned is the 45 purchased a year or so ago

Outside of an M16, my experience is fairly limited

Probably a pretty fair deal.

My favorite 10ga is a Remington that is nearly a replica of the original Ithaca 10ga guns from years ago. They were very functional shotguns.

I LOVE the .45 - my pistol of choice. I own two, a SIG and a Springfield Armory. Damned fine guns.

My first shotgun was a .410 (as a kid) hell, still have it to this day. I keep a 12 gauge stored in the closet - a Mossberg 500. It's kind of a "last resort" type of gun for me....

My old waterfowl buddy has a old Ted Williams model 10 ga he uses to this day for Snows. Its a long heavy unwieldy damn thing that shoots like butter. I kid him if he would get a better ground blind and lay still call better and lay out decoys right he wouldn't need that shoulder buster.

Yep. My Uncle on the other hand, had an 8 gauge. Never shot that damned thing but I saw him shoot it a couple of time, looked like the 4th of July when that damned thing went off....

This however, always cracks me up......the 700 Nitro

Does anybody have experience with the Classic Arms Freedom FX-9 9mm "Pistol"? Looking to get one considering the are only $600 and heard some good things about them. It being chambered for 9mm with a AR-15 platform it is a very intriguing thing.
