It's all about the stock you purchase, I've got a nice stock on the Remington 870 and you can shoot it one handed. Though it will kick a bit , certainly never hurt anyone. Stock says "Knoxx Spec Ops Stock". Look into them, they certainly work.

Re: First Firearm Thread.

The gun broker is ok for a lose reference; I see a lot of crack head prices on there. Its best to check what has sold not what is for sale, remember the reason you can see it for sale on gun broker is because no one has bought it yet. Lol

Rock River is ok, but they are not the manufacturer they simply assemble AR's from purchased parts. For me top shelf AR's (that are reasonable) and built to mil-spec would be Colt, Spikes Tactile, Lewis Machine and tool, SIG, and S&W, LWRC. The two brands I would stay away from would be 1. DPMS 2. Bushmaster Remember if you chose to buy a Colt, it’s a Colt and kind of an investment.

Barrels are generally not chrome lined Barrels are not MPI inspected Bolt & carriers are not MPI inspected Receivers will not fit all mags! (saw a pos dpms that a tango down mag wouldn’t fit) Carrier interior not chrome lined Bolt & carriers are not MPI inspected Gas key screws not staked and improper hardness Rifles with the M4 stock have a commercial spec tube and are not staked properly The fit between the upper & lower are pretty lose on the rifles I have handled and worked on, overall there QC is a little week, I have also seen Olympic and Bushmaster with most of the same issues.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
I was basically telling him not to be scared of the recoil from a 12 gauger. It isn't that bad.
I'm sorry so many of you took offense to my post, it wasn't meant to be degrading. I was just telling him that the recoil isn't as bad as it seems. |

Life is too short. I am not worried for me as I am gradually finding the bigger the caliber, the more I enjoy it. I am sure it won't be an issue for me, although not something I will enjoy shooting a 100 rounds in an hour. My concern is my wife. I really don't think she is anywhere close yet to taking that on. I rather get other weapons now and in time, as her comfort level increases, go back to looking at a 12 gauge.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Rather then go 20 gauge, I would look into a semi like the 1187 Remington. Less kick because you have the action absorb the recoil, my 11 year old daughter can handle me 12 gauge 1187 all day long.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Taking my .308/7.62 x 51 AR-10 out today to see how it shoots at 200 yds. and beyond. Had the thing a couple months now and hadn't managed to try it out beyond about 40 yards.

If Frank and the boys down south don't get the face-eating zombie issue resolved soon, this may become my next EDC
