    The M1 is really nice, built in 1945, fun to shoot but beware "M1 thumb"

    Cool:cool::cool:. THAT Remington 870 looks like a riot/police model. Good \God bless the police+ NRA help........................................................................................
    I looked @ some single shot \shotguns, multi shot handguns FRI; + that company had a full mount [Canadian] black pear, cool claws also. The manager also pointed out 2 more partial bear hides \i never saw there:caution::caution:

    The 870 Wingmaster has a full choke. First time I shot skeet hit just about everyone, like 10 in a row. Taken many Geese/duck with it. No bears :)

    MAYBE both\even though the inline modern muzzle loader are more accurate.
    MY bro liked to shoot theold style cap + ball revolvers, smeared Crisco on the cylinder to prevent multifire mess.:D:D[EDIT the reason some hate the NRA= they hate the NRA helping police + hate law + order, see how far they get:caution::caution:]

    Man, I hope they have better luck than the local department had with Sig Sauer. They just dumped the P-320 because of issues with it going off on it's own. We had a couple cops end up shooting other cops without the gun even being out of the holster. I guess a known issue too, yet they had to get the city council on board to make the move to a new platform before someone got killed.

    Heavy, shoots a huge pressure, essentially a 30-cal proof cartridge. They will train with the gimped round, which is another no-no (train with what you fight with). 6061 upper receiver with cam-track insert is weak. Lots of practical issues.

    It's nice that they are issuing suppressors with each rifle, but it's a modern M14. Far too much recoil. It's a nice gun, but not a lot of servicemen want to go to a full power cartridge.

    They have the M110 for LR. 5.56 (M4) for 100-300M. Should have developed the .458 SOCOM upper for use with M4 lowers.

    SIG US Rattler in 300BO. I had two of these. Neither would get through a mag, suppressed, with factory subsonics. I build my own or run Knight's SR. SR-15 for 5.56 and SR-30 for 300BO. Surefire OBC carriers with E-3.2 bolts in the Knight's or LMT Enhanced BCGs in my builds.
