Wingman Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) That's not that far! I shall do my best to be there. Now, do I bring the BPS or the Supernova? Easy... Both! Edited September 10, 2017 by Wingman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impala59 Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 I should like to provide a small trophy for the inaugural Pigeon Watch Pump Club clay shoot. Nothing too fancy or expensive, just something to mark the occasion (if no one has any objections) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingman Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Really busy at the moment having just started a new job. I'll try and get things a bit better organized for the 11th soon. Need to call the ground and let them know we're definitely coming as when I spoke to then we hadn't agreed a date..

A small point perhaps but does this site have any specific rules/guidelines for non-break action guns? For example bagged or flagged? Not having been there before, it would seem proper, responsible and polite to adopt their requirements and present ourselves in the best possible way Edited September 12, 2017 by impala59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBeaky Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Likewise cartridge rules? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I agree that's why a call is needed to finalise all the details. I'll try and call them this week and confirm everything. Will report back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impala59 Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 That confounded predictive text strikes again! Mossy 500? Section 1 or 2? S2 easier to sell but good S1 could be in demand. Slug 24" puts a little value on it but condition is everything. I sold a near mint accu-choke model for £125 , some have been sitting on guntrader et al for months at £150-200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol yes it a section 2 in good condition, which I believe to be a 5 shot5 shot would make it a section 1 firearm so unless you have a Firearm certificate it will be a restricted (3 shot) S2. Barrels are normally advertised as spares or accessoriesEdit...... just re-reading and think I may have mis-read the original post. It looks as though you wish to sell the barrel only, not a complete gun. If that is the case , then a 24" mossberg slug barrel in mint condition would, in my opinion, be worth about £60-70, I have bought whole guns for less. Anything other than mint condition could easily halve that value. Best place to sell is gun watch on this forum (IMHO) Edited September 17, 2017 by impala59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theshootist Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 I had another cracking shoot with the Model 12 on Sunday. I am challenging myself to be able to shoot as well with the pump as with my over and under. With a necessary slip on stock extender on I can now switch between the two fairly well. The Model 12 has a great trigger but I find it doesn't like to be rushed. I have to reset myself moving from a modern Benelli or Mossberg. I let a young man have a go with it and he seemed impressed. He was also interested in pump guns, especially .410s and was looking for a Winchester Model 42. Great to meet someone interested in older, quirky guns.

Novice Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Recently joined pump club with a savage model 30l courtesy of wabbitbosher. Couple of questions: How many other members have actually come across a true left hand pump like this? Hen's teeth comes to mind. Also, it has a double digit serial number. I'm not pretending it's some priceless first run or anything (it's clearly not) but that has surprised me a bit. Does anyone have any knowledge or information on dating savage guns? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrumbag Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Very nice sir! That's fantastic! Not many true lefty pumps. I think Remington and Mossberg make LH 870s and 500s respectively though not seen often. Piece of class to have is a Browning BPS or Ithaca 37 as is ambi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novice Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Thanks Scrumbag. Definitely a case of want rather than need but I had to have it when I saw it. I've also had a heym sr40 off Mick in left hand. I can't imagine they're more than a handful of them in the country in left hand configuration. Fair play to Mick for unearthing these gems and putting them back into circulation. I can't see me parting with either. Novice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrumbag Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Hi Novice, Must admit I had to google what that Heym was but looks great! And everyone needs a pump or 2… I have 2 in my cabinet, Browning BPS (nice gun) and Benelli Supernova (working gun) and I might well have got a Winchester Model 12 on the way… Scrummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 There is a cased Model 42 in a gun shop in Workington; owned by the proprietor and not for sale, unfortunately. Not Lakeland Guns, but the one further on from there. I haven't been in there for years and can't recall its name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
