Here in Michigan Dunham’s Sports usually have some outstanding Black Friday deals on Modern Sporting Rifles. I wonder what they’ll have this year, with MSR prices already at or near record lows.

Answered my own question. How about a Bushmaster Optics Ready (i.e., no iron sights) carbine for $549?

Looking into a shotgun for home protection. Mossberg keeps coming up. Any ideas where I can get a great deal? Will be sure to check out Dunhams too.

I remember back when Hillary and Bill slowed down checks one weekend like this.

It’s one of the reasons I got a Georgia Firearms License (later changed to Georgia Weapons Carry License).

If you have one here in Georgia, you just show that to the local gun store and fill out the Form 4473 and you’re done. No NICS check.

The first shotgun I ever actually bought (July 99) was a Mossberg Model 500 12 gauge Persuader. Out the door price (WalMart) was $205.99. For some reason, they don’t sell these any more.

Great shotgun!.....mag tube holds 8 shells, and one in the chamber.

Mossberg 500, Winchester 1300, or Remington 870. Not much difference between any of them, and each will last several generations.

The Remington has more aftermarket accessories available, if that is important to you.

>>In the U.S., there are nine guns for every 10 people.

Well I own a lot more than one, so until there are 9 guns for every 1 person, we need to keep buying.

Gun Broker’s a good place to start. Lots of new/used shotgun options under drop-down “browse categories” link at top. Also “narrow search” to Mossberg on left:

Look for one that has dual stocks, regular and hand gun, in a tight situation in home that hand gun stock is the better option. Hubby loves his. He has bad shoulders and the pistol grip stock fixed the issue. Better control.

With all the riots in fergerson people will start to think that maybe they should also arm themselves.

Especially if you live near a big LIBERAL CITY like Memphis or Detroit.

Walmart on the cheap. Mossbergs are solid inexpensive shotguns. Or better yet look for used. And do the deal privately and stay out of the system.

“Mossberg keeps coming up. Any ideas where I can get a great deal?”

I got my Model 500A at Cabelas for around $300 IIRC. It’s a great little shotgun for a very reasonable amout of money.

In South Carolina, produce your CWP & there’s no NCIS check or fee.

The gungrabbers are getting desperate. They’re now trying to ostracize gun rights people like they once did with smokers.

BTW anyone who shuns me because I own guns isn’t worth knowing, anyway.

What a bunch of crap. 72 hours to do a simple criminal background check is NOT a “race against the clock”.

By the way, the results of the checks done on me usually come back within 2 minutes of submittal.

For the best gun/ammo bargains, check out www.slickguns.com

It's not a merchant website. Rather it's a list of user-submitted bargains they've found. And it has search features. Very handy for finding great deals.

Mossberg makes moderately priced shotguns. Most shops charge a transfer fee if you don’t buy from them. Add to that a shipping charge and it often makes more sense to purchase locally. There are also many dealers who don’t stock firearms but will order you anything you like for a modest markup if you are willing to wait a few days. Call around and ask.
