Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
This is exactly what I'm lookin for, only with that hogue tamer grip. Could it be had with a $180 used donor?Originally Posted by jim
$405 OTD
Mossy 590 A1 14" 12ga.
Like to road test that Tamer pg. perhaps one day we'll run in to each other
I have a real budget 12ga. If i post what i have in to it, i will not be able to sell it in the future!

Still a $200 tax stamp. Update to incl a HT was installed. just haven't been able to shoot it. Somebody came by with a heated vehicle and some ammo we can hit the range, not too long with these temps.

You wanna shoot from the cab of a truck? JK. I don't have to have a SBS, but the shortest version possible (18" barrel right?) would work. That $200 stamp is a 1-time payment right? I'm watching a bunch on GB and going to hit a few pawn shops today.

Is there a collapsable stock you can buy for this?It's nothing fancy, but I wanted to see what kind of build I could make on a budget.
Started with a Savage/Stevens 320, added an Uncle Mike's swivel sling and kit, (5) PXD1 shells in a buttstock holder, and a Blackhawk grip with finger grooves. All in all, about $265.00.
stevens 320 sling
Saw a picture of your Stevens 320 with sling. Looks great! My question - how did you mount the sling to the stock? Did you use those slots molded into the security model? I can't find out how to use them for a sling, anywhere!!!Finally had a chance to shoot it today. About (40) target loads down the pipe, and not one FTF or FTE. Went BANG every time with expected accuracy. Action is even smoother now. Only issue is the finish on the magazine tube shows some wear from racking the slide. Break down and cleaning was easy the second time around. However, the only upgrade worth it was the sling kit. The shell holder was all over the place as well as the pistol grip sleeve. They're gone now, but I think a better recoil pad is in order. Overall, VERY happy with it, especially for the price!
What was wrong with the shell holder - looks great in the picture?
I believe I installed a sling kit which included a mag tube cover with a swivel sling stud. I ditched the shell holder after the very first shot when it slid down the stock.

MY FEEDBACK
Just picked it up today for $200
7+1 20" barrel. I might have to make a magazine limiter for it if I wanna go hunting with it though.
Budget HD 12 ga revisited!
Sold mine. Missed mine. Bought another. Shocker, I know. This time I went lighter but more usable I think. Started with a Tru-Glo snap on fiber front sight, replaced the stock pad with a Limb Saver at about the same LOP, but better recoil reduction for 1 oz slugs, figured out the sling mount slot in the stock, and adapted my fav Urban ERT sling to fit it.

i just dont understand the appeal of a 12ga for hd work
Devastating one shot per customer. If you saw what a 1oz slug did today to some pdogs we dispatched, I'd think you'd better understand.
