My 3 12 ga 870s

I finally took a picture of the 3 12ga 870s. We also have a 20 ga youth model but not in this picture.

The white labels on both sides indicate LOADED and type of rounds (00 Buck, Sabot and Rifled Slugs).

Top to bottom:

870 Express Magnum with fully rifled rifle sighted barrel (2 x OO Buck and 5 x Sabot)

870 with bead sight (6 x 00 Buck)

870 (NFA AOW) with MagPul Forend, AFG2 and Mesa 4-shot carrier (4 x rifled slugs)

Very nice and I like the labels. I realy like the foregrip and that type of pistol grip on the A 0 W, but why rifled slugs in that type of weapon? Also you probably have them just not in the photograph what do you think of the slings that hold a bunch of shells. All long guns need slings so why have them carry the shells at the penalty of a little extra weight? I've always been a Mossberg man I love the safety right on top and the fact that they're inexpensive but reliable. like I have told people if you're going to shoot a lot, like in a competition or a career,spend the extra money and get the 870 you won't regret it.

Thanks.

Speedfeed grip on the AOW. I wish I can find the wood version of that grip. Used to be made by Scattergun Technologies. But no longer in production.

The sling swivels are there in case I want to use a sling. They are quick release so can come off if not needed. I do not have any slings with shotgun shell loops.

The rifled slugs were just for show. Didn't want the Mesa shell holders empty. The AOW is not kept loaded. on this one, the label reads "NFA AOW HANDGUN".

8 months from establishing trust to ATF approval plus 10 day wait.

Whats the thinking behind 2 X 00 Buck 5 X sabot slug? How do you know how the fight will go already? Are the 2 buck shots to get him running the other way and the slugs are to take pot shots as he runs? lol
