    Would make a great gun to keep in the car. Can you imagine how well that would work on a car jacker?

    Can you imagine trying to swing that while sitting in the driver's seat?

    So, that's what's not to like.
    Well, that's it then. Thanks for the head's up. But, I do think this new toy from Mossberg is less an 'aiming' thing and more a real close range blaster. I wonder if a Brenneke slug point blank will affect a big bear?

    Trump can't get rid of laws alone. You're gonna need Congress to pass a bill for that. I called my Representative and he's on board. My Senator is Rand Paul, so I figured I didn't need to call him.

    Friend of mine ran a huge trap line and used a lever action "mares leg"(version he had was a trapper special, same length though) to put down fox and coyotes caught in the traps, and one badger. Sure a 22lr would have usually worked but the last badger I shot close with a 22 just made it madder...

    To All,

    ONE of my current plans for a "project" is "sawing off" a 20-Gauge Mag or 12-Gauge DOUBLE-BARREL into a "sort of a clone" of the old-school AUTO-BURGLAR GUN with 10-inch barrels.
    (This of course means that I have to go through the "hassle" of dealing with the bureaucrats of BATFE & paying the NEEDLESS/WORTHLESS 200.oo tax.)

    Once that's done, I may well look into becoming a manufacturer of the "shot pistol" & trying to get BATFE to declare it a normal handgun, as Mossberg has accomplished with their Model 590 SHOCKWAVE with 14" tube.
    (I may be 100% WRONG but I think that such a "regular handgun" would be EASY to sell "a whole bunch of" in 20-gauge magnum.)

    Note: I've been "thinking on this" for over 2 decades & was "ready to go" to be a manufacturer of AOW weapons in 1991, until the USA sent me OCONUS once again.
    (When the word "got out" at that time, I had a "potential customer", a State Department of Corrections, that wanted to buy 50 or more AOW for their institutions.)

    yours, tex

    ARM BRACE? Ha!

    Arm brace? Are you Shi**ing me? If you believe that I have a bridge to sell you.

    Sorry your so upset.
    You see some states dont allow SBS so I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY.
    I can even bring MY Sig Brace to other states without jumping through hoops.
