cause this is what you will be bringing home.



Long story short is I went skeet shooting for the first time about a month ago and it was pretty fun. The remington shotgun I used was kicking my butt but other than that a lot of fun. I looked for a shotgun tha I could manage a little better because it was my intention to start doing skeet regularly.

So I get some recommendations here and head over to Stey's to try some on. He lets me shoot his M1S90 and the recoil and weight are perfect for me. I tell him I want one FOR SKEET but will also double it for home defense as a SECOND USE.

Tells me a Benelli is great for both but I need a couple things.

First I need a extended tube, it's tactical doncha know. Do I need that for skeet? Of course I do.

Then he convinces me that pistol grip buttstock would be better for me. Actually I hate to say it but he was right, I could tuck it in that much nicer but the LOOKS I got a the skeet range.

And the coup de gras, I gotta have a tac light. Never know when you are gonna want to shoot a round of skeet at 2am but hey I'm all set just in case.

I now have this nifty little tactical home defence shotgun that in theory once could use for skeet.

Later today I had Stey order me a Benelli Montefeltro for SKEET. One with a long barrel and wood stocks. And without a tac light.

I have a Franchi O/U I shoot skeet and trap with, but the most fun I ever had skeet shooting involved a Winchester riot gun, WW2 surplus.

If a skeet every try to break in and enter your house, it's a dead skeet.

"Pull!" BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-kerchak!

That was close, I think that clay pidgeon was high on PCP...

See if you go to Steyr and say " I Need a shotgon for Home Defense and for Skeet" he's going to hear "I need to buy a shotgun for Home Defense, and I need to buy a Shotgun for Skeet".

He's funny like that.

Don't laugh, I once shot clays with a 18" 870 with a Surefire fore end and a Knoxx Copstock folder. A bunch of old fogies at the range thought I was nutz.

Yeah, you'll get some "looks" as well as some sneers at some skeet clubs.  I just love seeing someone humble those guys with a plain old "field gun".  Or better yet, one of those evil (gasp) tactical guns.

I for one don't believe a word of it. I'd never sell anyone a gun that could only be used for skeet.

That Montelfeltro is gonna show up with a bayo lug.



So LauraCroft really is a female?

I have to ask, but isn't it illegal to blind the skeet before you shoot them?
