My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.

I question this statement taken from the item description.

This muzzle break is designed to reduce felt recoil to that of a 12 ga. Shotgun.

I have shot alot of 12ga shotguns. Some that I did not enjoy one little bit. So does that mean a 8lb 12ga with target loads or a 6lb 12ga with a big 1 3/8 oz slug? :o

Thanks, Dinny

That would be a great little rifle for plinking woodchucks at a mile or so ::)   Jason, why don't you buy it and send it to Dinny for an early Christmas present.  It might be very "Handi" for him in the Sand Box and Rock Pile. ;)

Yeah Dinny, I've shot some 12 ga. guns and loads I regretted shooting just once....let alone all day.

I agree. I found the blast wave from the brake more annoying than the recoil.

We've been shooting off a bunch of excess M2 MG ammo lately instead of turning it in. Those bolt and semi-auto guns are neat, but we aren't really using them much anymore. The M2 gets all the glory. ;)

Thanks, Dinny
