just got her in yesterday, changed to youth syn stocks.
I drilled & tapped for base and installed bushnell trophy red dot.

its a model 258  20ga 22" with 3" chamber nickel  made in 1984.
hardly ever been shot. tight as tight can be.... needs a bunch of shells run thru her
to loosen up.

she's light as a feather, gonna be a slug thrower. if the shoulder can handel it...
i'll be loosen'er up this afternoon.......prolly more my shoulder than the gun !!!!


man!!! its like a NFL linerbacker hit'n ya from the blindside, aww-heck... it ain't that bad..
bout 10 #3 bucks and 10 buckhammer slugs...
@ 50 yrds the #3 left about 9 pellets in a pie plate size target
and the buckhammers hit'er every time after site'n in, which took about 6 shots.. :P
well, it appears that its gonna do what i got her for...
i'm glad i took the stock off that had the butt plate and put the youth syn on... its got a nice pad
and it works good.--------so far so good------- ;D
i thank i'll keep her!!!!!!!   wish i could say that fer my shoulder :o
sea-ya.....
in tha meen time, i'm wait'n for tha  7th trumpet ta sound !!!

gotta big green tractor ana diesel truck, my idea of heaven's chasin whitetail bucks and asa country boy, you know i can survive............

hey boy, hit this mason jar one time...
burn ya lil'bit did'nt it. ya ever been snipe hunt'n ?  come on...

I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.

Ditto that ... sweet little slugger. Love the stainless/or nickel plated frame as well as trigger and hammer.
Seen them before, and wish I could find a few.
Thanks for sharing  the pic let us know how she shoots.

A great looking set up buddy. There is something simple and effective about a smoothbore slug gun. Add sights or a red dot and you are set for anything. Thet are light to carry, effective, and use the inexpensive foster style slugs or buckshot very well....<><....:)
