Chinese clone
« on: June 11, 2013, 01:27:09 PM »
Just received my Dominion Arms Backpacker 12GA today, made in China off course, the finish is rough, the action is very tight, 13" barrel. All metal including the trigger guard and the forend spacer, not bad for a $150 gun!

would love to only spend 150 on a short barreled gun, but alas our 200.00 tax stamp on those would make it a 350.00 dollar gun. :-X  I know, iknow I could move but then I would have to leave my M2 50 cal behind.... :-[

I'm afraid if I owned that 13" barreled shotgun my next photograph would look very much like Busters Avatar.   BTW Buster does that shotgun have any choke in it?

That is considered  "any other weapon " barrel over 12 inches but under  18 inches and can be fired only one time per barrel before reloading. Fee may only be 5 bucks can't remember. Check out the ATF site.
If ya can see it ya can hit it !

I'm impressed with the detachable forend and the metal trigger guard/spacer for $150!  How's the checkering look?

Just curious, would the stock fit on a Handi?
 
Would any other parts (barrel, metal trigger guard, etc.) from that gun fit a Handi?

When you allow a lie to go unchallenged, it becomes the truth.

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.

You don't have any handy(available) or any Handis? What happened to your BC? It has the same frame and barrel parts as a Handi, it would be easy to try the forend on the BC.  ;) Not that it really makes any difference for anyone in the US since it couldn't be sold here, parts  availability is another matter.

Tim I sold my BC but I will buy another one (or a regular handi in 45-70) for sure I still have the metal spacer for it ;)
