Do you need a semi? If not you could get a Benelli Super Nova. Or if you do need a semi you could get a Remingto 11-87 Super Mag so you can blast 3 1/2" rounds. Hope this helps.

if you want a good gun for $500.00 or less. dont buy an off brand import . a benelli nova or a super nova are great guns for under 500 bucks, if you want a semi auto look for used a browning/winchester or an older benelli. remingtons are ok but they have a gas ring in them that burns up all the time so you need to carry a spare o ring. hope this helps

So my chances of finding one are slim huh...darn...that fourth shell could have meant my first quadruple haha

I would LOVE to find one but once you have the capability to shoot 4 and still have a plug in you don't get rid of it, who wouldn't like an extra shot.

IowaMigr8tor
01-07-2007, 03:45 PM
***elry Crew, you just need to keep a shell in your mouth so when you have shot your 3 shells you can pop a fourth in for your quadruple. :lol:

HRK
01-07-2007, 03:45 PM
yea i should have kept mine!!!! there really hard to find now and benelli fixed it so ya cant do that no more

if you want to spend a lil less i would go with the Remington 870 Super Mag put the Strait Meat sticker on it...thats how i got mine and love it. then have an old 1100 that i shoot trap with so its the same looking down an 870 as it is an 1100 just my thoughts

HRK

HEY GUYS IT IS POSSIBLE TO GET FOUR SHELLS IN A NEWER SBE I AND A SBEII WITH THE PLUG INTACT

HRK
01-07-2007, 05:31 PM
NOPE they fixed it so it wont do it, aleast it wouldnt on my old SBEI ,havent tried it on the SBEII. cause i shoot a super X2 now.

And how is that Marshmaster?

marshmaster
01-07-2007, 05:40 PM
ALL BENELLI DID WAS ADD ANOTHER NOTCH ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BOLT, JUST FILL THE BACK NOTCH IN WITH ALITTLE JB WELD, AND SAND IT DOWN SMOOTH AND YOUR ALL SET. MY SBE I IS OLD ENOUGH THAT I DIDNT HAVE TO DO IT BUT I DID THIS TRICK ON MY SBE II AND IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM.

No I need all four so when Al's gun f***'s up I can quadruple and shoot his birds too! :lol:

marshmaster
01-07-2007, 05:58 PM
SORRY NOT THAT COMPUTER SAVVY BUT THIS IS SUPER EASY, JUST TAKE OUT YOUR BOLT,, TURN IT UPSIDE DOWN, NOTICE 2 GROOVES ON IT,, THOSE GROOVES CATCH THAT BLACK FLIPPER THING STICKING UP FROM THE TRIGGER ASSEMBLY, NOTICE THAT WHEN YOU FLIP THAT BLACK THING THE SHELL ADVANCER OR TREY GOES UP,, JUST FILL IN THE BACK GROOVE ON THE BOLT AND IT CANT TRIP THAT BLACK THING . THIS ALLOWS THE SECOND SHELL IN THE TREY TO STAY THERE WHILE YOU PUT ONE IN THE PIPE. WHEN YOU LOAD YOUR GUN PUT 2 IN THE MAG, PULL YOUR ACTION BACK BUT NOT ALL THE WAY, DROP THE THIRD SHELL IN ABOVE THE TREY, THEN SLIDE THE FOURTH SHELL IN THE PIPE. JUST BE CAREFUL NOT TO PULL THE ACTION ALL THE WAY BACK CUZ THAT WILL MAKE THE FRONT GROOVE IN THE BOLT TRIP THAT BLACK THING IN THE TRIGGER ASSEMBLY MAKING THE TREY COME UP. MAKE ANY SENSE?

Do you have any Gun Clubs Or Sporting Clay ranges nere you ? If so go to one and try different guns. The ones around me will let you try about any gun on the market. If not talk to some of the members chances are they have already shot what your looking at.

marshmaster
01-07-2007, 07:26 PM
SORRY IF I RUBBED ANY ONE WRONG , JUST THOUGHT YOU WOULD WANT TO KNOW HOW TO DO THIS .. TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST WITH YOU ,, MOST OF THE TIME YOU FORGET THAT YOU HAVE THE EXTRA SHELL.. IT COMES IN HANDY WHEN YOU HAVE A TOUGH DRAKE DOWN AND HE 'S SWIMMIN FOR THE WEEDS WITH HIS HEAD UP, AND EVERYONE IN THE BOAT IS DIGGIN FOR SHELLS TO FINISH HIM OFF

HRK
01-07-2007, 07:28 PM
heres the best advise i can give ya . get a name brand within your $$$$ limit. just go to the sporting goods store and handle some.....everyone here has there prefferances on guns, IE: how they fit them, what they like, and what works for them best.......so go handle some ,see how they shoulder and swing for you and what feels best for you!!! and go from there.

Yeah marshmaster that same thing happened to me today shot a drake thought he was dead and after the hen and he was swimmin off for the races I mean I killed him after I shot the cripple shot at him but he got into the weeds and if I didnt kill him he was REALLY messed up

hey man i would look in to a mossberg 935 if you are looking for something that will shoot 3.5 and 3 they are good duck guns, i have one and i love it and it is like 430.00 out the door unless you know some one who works at a sporting goods store then maybe a little less but back to the subject they are great guns for the money now if you want camo then you might be a little over 500.00 but the black ones are just as good thats just my .02

i've been shooting reminging 870 pump for 20 years & i get to hunt 3 days a week. i've hosed the gun out, dropped it in salt water, used it for a paddle & a push poll. still works like new. u can't beat it.

Hey Fm92, did you like the gun you had? If so I know a place in East TN, Predator Gunworks. They put a ceramic coating on the gun inside and out and make it comletely weather proof. My boss had his browning gold 10 done and it looks great and will never rust. It only costs around $250. But in answer to your post I have an 11-87 SM and love it. It has never jammed and cycles lightning fast. Oh about those 935 Mossbergs you'll need to put a limbsaver recoil pad on it if you want to be able to lift your arm up the next day. I shot woodiewacker's before the pad with 2 3/4" steel and it beet the absolute **** of my shoulder. Once he put the pad on it was fine.



unless you know some one who works at a sporting goods store then maybe a little less

Easy Woodie don't want that gettin out to everyone.

woodiewacker
01-08-2007, 08:35 PM
yeah the recoil pad is a good idea but could be a good gun without it and i didn't let it get around you did

Personally if you dont absolutely have to have a semi-automatic....I would go with a Remington 870. I mean i do agree that the Nova or Super Nova is a great gun but i just dont think there is a gun out there that can take the abuse that a Remington 870 can. Just this year i dropped mine completely under water and all i did was take it out make sure the barrell was ok and replaced it with a fresh round or shells and ended up killing 2 more ducks with it. I mean the gun does have a little kick to it but hey who pays attention to the kick when they got the bead on that duck or goose cupped up and committed. Just my two cents hope it helps you out.
