I love the Model 99. It's on my short list. Unfortunately, they're pricey in my neck of the woods. I got a screaming deal on my Model 88.

Is it weird that right after buying a semiauto "tactical" shotgun that I find myself eyeballing a 18-20" barrel "tactical" pump gun as well?

I bought my A300 last year on the same day my Dad went and picked up a new shotgun for dove season. I really wanted a new pump gun myself, even if I don't need another one.

It was determined by the manufacturer that this product was not slick recce end user knowledge transfer enough so they made it more so, how you ask? they took a Noveske rail and dremeled part of the front off

DD4 IAC, this was DD's submission to the trial that KAC won for the British SF Contract, they did the thing that they do with the DD5 when the handguard bolts go into the receiver but only one one side and asymmetrically, two bolts on the left and three on the right (with the right ones attaching like normal)

You have an integrally suppressed barrel, but you also have exhaust ports and the capability for either a thread on reflex module OR a muzzle device mounted suppressor?


@Club Sandwich
Two for you today, both probably longshots but I have to ask

While doing some reading and researching regarding my next question I came across an article in American Handgunner (linked below)
And out of nowhere this line just jumps out

"In his early days, firearm icon Bill Ruger converted a lever action rifle to fire full-auto."

Now I have a pretty good Idea of how he achieved the (presumed) gas operation, he probably did it like Browning did, But I can't think of how he could achieve full auto. Any ideas? And Ideally photos?

Secondly.
On page 72 of the 1995 nonfiction Book "Lethal Passage" by Erik Larson there is reference made to an Internal ATF (training? technical?) video in which an Agent demonstrates how to convert an RPB Industries M-11/9 to full auto. My question is, do you have such a video saved on a hard drive somewhere or know of a link to it off the top of your head? While I don't have the aforementioned video here is a video made by RPB themselves featuring none other than Maxwell Atchisson converting various firearms to full auto as part of a court case in order to demonstrate that their products were not uniquely easily to convert. Inside they make several mentions of converting various .22's to full auto with just a length of music wire attached either to the bolt face or bolt tail (but the quality is so bad I can't really see what they're doing)

Sureshot USA has unveiled a "MK1.5" version of their MK.3 "Krink" Chassis, It's a MK.3 with no dust cover rail and a much reduced price, oh and apparently they're doing something along the lines of the Russian SAG MK.1 Handguards (that can no be converted into a chassis with the addition of a MK.4 top piece at least with SAG RU)

I saw this video recently and got really confused because I thought someone had licensed Basis Rail from Zenitco and slapped it on an AR, but it turns out that it's s proprietary and thus obsolete mounting system that works kinda like the old Geissele mk2

Explanation starts at 1:20

Leitner Wise once had a prototype featuring a Jam nut retained gas block, making them one of the 5 companies that I am aware of to have incorporated such a feature

I buy everything i want online. My part of the world only has cheap shot out .22s and cheap pump since that's all that people here can afford and buy. My nearest gun store (40 miles away) has scads of 12 gauge pump guns in every flavor. which is neat and all but it gets old after a while. They transfer cheaply though so I don't mind.

Larue beat them to the punch on this:

Before Mark's most recent divorce you could get these on their website. Looks like they're discontinued now that he sells through distributors. Main issue I imagine is interference with thick suppressors(Larue listed the maximum diameter).

it was a savage model 99 converted in the late 1930's and the prototype is in the NRA museum. the gas is tapped off the barrel and used to to move a reciprocating rod that goes rearward to the receiver where a modified tang to both actuate the lever (rotating the magazine) and work the action. the hammer fall when the bolt returns to the fully forward position, with the rod pulling on the lever to complete the cycle.

i don't know, i would honestly have to look but i do remember being shown a much higher quality video of the RPB footage so i think it's out there, but unknown if it's in a digital format. current videos of a similar vein are demonstrations of Glock, HK, and AR conversions and identifying as such, "a conversion" using a bump stock or bump stick, various trigger group packs or "accelerators" as the kids used to call them, and so forth. one interesting one i saw was converting a mossberg 930 SPX to full auto merely to prove that semi-auto shotguns aren't immune to this.

Not weird, just GAS.

A Beretta or Benelli auto loader is as reliable as a pump and significantly better suited for most tasks. You're more likely to short shuck a pump than an A300 or 1301 or M4 is to FtF.

So after doing some soul searching in light of the disappointment that I most likely will never receive my Auto Mag, I've decided that I'm going to put some of my plans for this year on hold and save up for a Wildey Survivor. I've had my heart set on getting one of the early "Big Iron" semi-auto magnums like the Auto Mag or Wildey. I've wanted one since I was a kid. I'll probably initially get one "Death Wish 3" style in .475 Wildey Mag with the 10" barrel and eventually get a second barrel for it in .45 WinMag, since that ammo is much easier to come by and a lot less expensive than .475 Wildey Mag. I was planning on getting a second Nightingale Leather shoulder rigs, this time for my Staccato P since shoulder rigs are my favorite way to carry, and a Marlin 1895 SBL, but the Wildey is to fill one of my "Grail Gun" slots.

If, uh...anyone wants to donate to the "Get the Dude a Wildey" fund, I won't say no.

I stumbled upon the YouTube channel of Tim Sundles, the big game hunter that runs Buffalo Bore, and he's got a great video on internet ballisticians in regards to testing mediums.
I'd say with all the experience he has he's got a decent perspective on performance, for reference he domed a charging Cape Buffalo last month.

TL;DW: Caliber choice should not depend on shooting steel or birch. Ballistics gelatin is a close testing medium to flesh but you should either practice and use it yourself or get information from someone who has actually used it.

yes, a 18" LE barrel with folding stock through FIE bought in the mid-90's, although i do not have the rare AR-15 style stock or the shot diverter sadly. i use delrin buffers to keep it in shooting order since those are easy to get. i do not have the desirable SPAS-15 though :(

It's probably going to be a huge flop like the Turkish Alofs and lever action 12 gauge imports. The right idea is to cannibalize it for the furniture and use the stripped blaster for reloading experiments.
