Good side by side 12 guage

Excuse me for not taking the time to hit the Remington home page... I didn't think the Marine variety came with walnut. Especially with that much character. Either way, that be real nice stuff there Ash.

 

Over and Unders FTW!!!

They're like a DRUG for me!!!

 

You are correct and thanks for the kind words. The Marine Magnum comes standard with a synthetic stock and forend.

I actually had it outfitted like this until this past summer when I decided to put the walnut furniture on:

 

Ah yes, a recoil reducing stock? At least it appears to be of that design. Was it Knox that made those? Expensive unit, as is the pump / light forend combo.

I fired a shotty outfitted with a CAR15 style spring loaded - recoil tamer stock about a year back. Heavy turkey loads from those high velocity 3 and 1/2 inc shells were down right BRUTAL! The stock helped a great deal, but the check weld often put the shooter in line with the slip joint of the collapsing stock. This often resulted in a pinched check upon the recoil absorption cycle. Not good. The stock worked well, but knowing you were about to get a bruised face didn't set well after the first shot rang out.

The gun was not mine and I understand after shooting it why my hunting buddy removed same. LOL.

I do much prefer the look of the walnut against that satin. Your stock set has very nice features, not too subtle and visible grain as well. Again, I really like what you've done there! Good job.

 

Yeah, that's a Knoxx SpecOps recoil reducing stock. It really did tame full power slugs and I made an effort not to place my cheek too close to the stock to avoid getting slapped.

I much prefer my shotguns outfitted in wood furniture now. Something about it really compliments those classic lines...
