You joke but meditation can be relaxing. Mostly with some whiskey. And a couch. And a tv.. am I doing it wrong?

I have brown eyes . Soooooo.
No! Don’t derail the shotgun thread! Bad!
590 Retrograde. Worthy replica? Or fatty McFatFat chonky boy BS?
Edit- it’s heavy, heavier than a standard 590. I picked one up when I bought my 590 and declared it overpriced steampunk nonsense.

I agree and ill try my hardest not to derail it. @enbloc you are a wealth of historical knowledge. Not many people left that remember the final years of ww1. Kidding please do post historical stuff. We love it.
Moderate derailment is necessary in adding clout to any NES thread. Otherwise it’s just discussion, and no one wants that.

The pam Anderson of guns?
Beat me to it. “I’ll shoot anything once” is the equivalent of “I’d throw it in’er dumper”.
Can we stop derailing every f***ing thread?
Shotguns have their advantages and disadvantages. Unfortunately a lot of people ignore one or the other - some seem to think that a shotty is the end-all be-all when it comes to home defense, while others seemingly look at it as practically useless.

I want some of that "nonsense". That 590 Retrograde is difficult to find.

53 posts and no one has said TRENCH BROOM yet???
Lightweights.
It was a great close quarters firearm. Better than going trench-expedient-stabby-weapon to trench-expedient-stabby-weapon. Slam firing is overrated and is NOT smooth in most cases. Better to close then fire.

Governments arguing over what their peasants are sent to kill each other with is ludicrous.

Boston PD still had leftovers from WW1 in the 1960's. The fun fact is the '97 would slam fire if you held the trigger back. I shot one when I was about 12 at Moon Island.
Also used by the bad guys in the movie Bullitt

But ooooohhhhhhhhh, slamfiring is SO much fun.
Still does! The '97 I've got was made in the 1950s and they still didn't make it with a disconnect. The Norinco copies do the same.

I have a '97 (from '09) but it has the full length barrel. It's a takedown. One of these days I'll get it chopped - they made so many of them and it's not like it's unfired or anything.
If any of you get a chance to handle one for the first time just watch out for that slide coming back or it'll bite you. As far as I can tell you only get bitten by it once though.![[smile]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/001.gif "Smile [smile]")

I was afraid of that too, but to be honest it's never bitten me yet.
