Does anyone own a Fabarm FP6 or automatic "tactical shotgun"? I looked at a FP6 carbon fiber pump recently and really liked it. How would you say it compares to a Mossberg/Remington/Winchester in terms of reliability/durability? I think its extremely cool looking, but thats not enought to justifty the expense. I think I can get it for around 400.00, but whats holding me back is my lack of knowledge and the fact its a 20 inch 5 shot. Are there factory or aftermarket magazine extensions availible for these weapons? What about pistol grip stocks and other accessories such as side saddles? Any information would be surely appreciated.

I have a FP-6 with an extension that works very well.   It came with a barrel shroud and rifle type sights.  It seems to have more felt recoil than my 870, but shoots very well.

I have one too, its a nice shotgun.  If you want a tactical shotgun, go with the 870 or something similar.... they are more versitile!

I have an FP6 carbon I'm using for 3-gun/HeMan. Nice shotgun. Choate makes a +3 extension for it. (8 rounds + 1). With a screw on modified choke on it, the extension tube lines up almost perfectly. If you don't have a choke on it the tube will be a little longer. Got at a CDNN closeout price of $330.

Here is a picture of mine with the choke off.
