Go for it. Looking at buying a Wingmaster myself.

Man, lots of people getting their 3 or 4 SHTF guns together these days...

You can do without the heat shield bro that's just for looks. You wont be putting rounds through it fast enough to make it that hot. Get an m4 collapsible stock for it if you really need to do anything to it. They're fine left alone. Get a nylon sleeve that holds extra shells maybe look into a light to go on it. You don't see police officers or military really decking out their shotguns. I hate when people bubba fuck everything. But then again it's your gun and it's just my opinion. Good luck!

Bubba fuck, haha.

If you are going to put a pistol grip on a shotgun might as well do it like you want.

I know some guys hate tactical add ons....I don't really care either way, depends on the gun but I'm a fan of firearms that look like they can be used to hunt for paranoid stealth reasons. As an example I chose a wood stock Mini 14 over an AR that looks like you should be on top of a tank.

I would like to get an old chinese paratrooper sks. They don't look as "tactical" but they pack a fucken punch.

This is the shotgun I have. It came with everything you see on it. Collapsible m4 stock and it has a shell carrier on the side I keep slugs and buck on it.

Im also a huge fan of the m1 carbines

makaveli25 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 17, 2012, 08:43:33 PM »

One more thing about a pistol grip shotgun you can't aim for shit with one. They're good if you are riding "shotgun" or if you are in a tank or something. It's much better to have a stock on it.

This is what you need my friend

I've spent the last two years reading about guns and shtf all that stuff. This is the best mod you can put on it.

This actually has a recoil reducer built into it. You can shoot high powerd slugs and you wont feel much. Very awesome!

870's especially the older ones that were built with more metal parts are the best shotguns you can own same with mossberg 500 series.

That's a good setup to! If you have the money though go with the blackhawk design. It's really top of the line!

Yep. I prefer mossberg. 870 is nice too.
I always wanted a 1887 tho. Idk why. Just looks cool

I run a Mossberg 590 Mariner. I`m not big on the pistol grips, just seem to have better control over the weapon with a stock on it. If the world ever becomes lawless there will be plenty of 12ga shotguns to make whatever length I need.

I buy firearms made from stainless steel where I can, considering they are a long term investment I think its worth the extra few dollars up front.

Pistol grips are nice because their reduced the size on the weapon
