    Knoxx recoil reducing stock is amazing for a shotgun. My wife can shoot 3" comfortably. Really nice for those 3.5" duck loads!

    1900? I was thinking more like around 1800.

    Actually the last 5 years or so we were having our new shotguns modified by some high tech outfit. They changed the stocks, installed recoil devices and used some new high tech finish and shortened the barrel by about an inch.

    They were really nice but still a pain in the butt to shoot. Many of our shotgun qualifications involved running and shooting at the same time and using some novel positions like lying on your back on the ground and shooting through yer open legs. One false more and....

    There is a solution to the high cost of centre fire ammo and that is a conversion kit to 22 RF. We had them for our FNC1A1s and they were kind of neat. You could use the conversion kit and fairly well sight the rifle in for 100 yard shooting in full bore 308 on the indoor range. They were identical, as near as I can recall, to these British issue one.

    I've had my eye on the 1911 45acp to .22lr conversion kits that are available for a while now. It seems whenever I remember to check on them, everyone's sold out. Thanks for the reminder!

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
