Thread: Shot gun 3gun

I find it's not so much the time to reload a full mag tube that matters, but the time to load 2 rounds, so then your transition from shooting to loading and back to shooting is really critical, that's why i don't load with the gun locked onto my shoulder.
Most matches you're only loading 2-4 rounds on the move and very seldom shooting all 9 and having to full load.

3 gun shotgun is definitely a loading race though, i placed 3rd ungraded at the South Island Nats last week and shotgun was my strongest gun purely because I was reliable

How does everyone interpret the rules for filing back around the loading port on a Standard/Tactical class shotgun, allowed or not?
I've filed mine back after reading the rule book , its says "Replacements of or modifications to elevators/floor plates, provided no part protrudes beyond the standard frame of the gun, are permitted"

Both my thumbs have had a hammering the last few days getting pinched by the lifter.
If I make an effort, I can hold the lifter up with my thumb knuckle.
Is there any other way of avoiding the pinch or do you just get used to it?

Get a different lifter or modify it.

It's the proper modified one. I must be doing it wrong.😆

^^ well my factory Benelli loading port eventually cuts the side of my thumb loading even with a new lifter so I think it's just shotguns


Might have to take a file to the loading port of my 2800 dollar shotgun to save my thumb

I don't get cut, just trap the tip of my thumb at the end of the lifter and pinch it.

Haven't done it for a while now and actually getting some speed up quad loading which is pleasing considering my small hands.
Mag spring is pretty strong on the gun so it should get better with use.

Sharp edge on the M2 magwell ends up cutting into the side of the thumb after a while

Can get a roulette tac plus 2 that screws on in place of the end cap to increase capacity by another two rounds. Works mint with the uncut factory spring and lightens up resistance significantly esp when first loading the mag.

Cheers mate sounds like a good idea. I will see if I can track one down.

Doing some research I noticed you cannot get a Roulette plus 2 anymore. Nordic seem to be the go to extention but can't find a decent website to sell one.
Nzguns keep coming up as having used all their bandwidth😆

Sounds good if they have one. I looked and couldn't find anything but that is not saying much.

I will pay for the shipping as I owe you for the stock still.

+2?

Yeah the plus 2 but I will have to see if it fits the extention already on it. I believe it is a nordic in the first place but not sure if it will fit where the end cap is. It is threaded and if the same tread as the main extention it should be sweet. Not near my gun to check now.
We can have a squizz this arvo at the club. See ya up there around 2ish?

Yup. Can you bring that buffer tube that was in that stock? chur
