This rant is by no means pointed at anyone here…..or there really but I HAVE gotten into arguments with internet folks about barrel work vs. ammo type.
A few times I have been told, mostly by respected internet people, that the work I have done to my barrel was pointless, stupid even. “Ever since the introduction of Flight Control barrel work is not ever needed again”…..”You wasted your money”…
my biggest argument was “what happens when the Flight Control dries up”……..” That won’t ever happen”, or “I have a life time supply” …My point was you never know what’s going to happen to a consumable….
but I don’t know anything because I haven’t had a shotgun class and I don’t do this for a living or I don’t know Costa…….but I say “what if we have to resort to homemade ammo, or we all have to shoot whatever we can get?”….about the time people think I have a tin foil hat.
Well after this little panic streak we probably will see it come back…..but if it gets any worse next time or this time I wouldn’t bank on getting my hands on fancy ammo , if you do I wouldn’t count on it being replaced……I don’t care how magic it is, it can’t reproduce……
so I feel a little justified in my long standing argument that the onetime expenditure of barrel work WILL last a lifetime and whatever ends up in your shotgun in the future WILL patter the best it can be from my Vang Comp barrel …….so kiss my simple ass
