I stand to be gifted an 870 in the next few years, but I'm not sure if I want to wait.
By the time I'd make the purchase, I'd be living alone and nobody would have knowledge of where the weapons are stored, so safety is irrelevant. I have been trained extensively in weapons safety and I expect to keep whatever I?m using safety disengaged (I hate pulling the trigger ready to shoot, forgetting that the safety is on), with an empty chamber and a full loadout.

:music: Woke up this mornin', got ya-self a gun.... :music:
Saw a few really nice shotguns today while just looking around trying to see what was available in my price range, but just as I was about to walk out of the store, I spotted a bananna clip hanging off the rack... I know these aren't exactly easy to get your hands on and I certainly couldn't argue with the price (It was the lowest I've EVER seen for a non-asian one by at least $200)
Walked out with a new Century Arms imported, Romanian AK-47 (WASR-10 HIGH-CAP) Included were two bananna clips, the OEM cleaning kit, the OEM strap and some ammo. Now that I think about it, I'm affraid to admit to anyone that I actually own it because I think there's such a stigma attached to them that admitting that I have one would be like admitting that I'm a certifiable nutjob and providing proof.
What do you think?
