Just my 2 cents; loaded guns all around the house not under your immediate control don't sound like a solution, just another problem. When you leave the house, do you secure them? What happens if you come home and interupt a break-in? If you always need a gun within arms reach you need a...

xxane; Welcome aboard; New guns often need to break in. Keep in mind pumps need to be cycled briskly, they tend to malfunction most when the slide is babied. I suggest you use dummy ammo and cycle the gun quite a bit to work out any machining burrs or tight fits. Dummy ammo allows you to do it...

Re: Shorter Stock? Hogue makes a 12" shorty. Blackhawk and others make M-4 style adjustables. With care...wood stocks can be trimmed on a table saw or chop saw . When the recoil pad is replaced use a disk sander to carefully sand-to fit the edges

Re: HOGUE Mossberg 500 OverMolded™ Shotgun Stock - 12" L.O.P The 'standard' 14 3/8" LOP is basicaly too long for most people. It gets worse when you put on a heavy winter coat which pushes the gun further away. In years of teaching police and corrections shotgun, the first thing I would do to...

sometimes the low brass gets 'torqued' in relation to the plastic hull and that 'bends' the shell so it won't feed well. Its all a quality control issue. Look at Lightfield HD rubber buckshot for the .410

Modifying the barrel won't impove any LL load. If its already done, fine but don't expect much because of it. Look at Lightfield Home Defender loads at Sportsmansguide.com or MidwayUSA.com and go for the HV Slug or NOVA-DR. The NOVA is the loudest thing ever to come out of a 12ga and proven...
