I think the single shot 12 ga is an overlooked gem. I still have my H&R that I bought in 1984. I put her away when I bought my first pump. Years later I brought out “punchy” for fun. I used that shot gun for years for rabbit, and deer hunting. I brought it back out when I bought a clay thrower and I was dusting the clays. I forgot how fun it was. It is light, easy to clean and it was inexpensive. She lets you know she’s there when you pull the trigger, but if you know her well, she will deliver rabbit, deer and what ever you ask of her. The best part is she is very low maintenance and high performance. What more can you ask?

I bought a used Winchester 370 single shot 12 ga, 30 inch full choke, when I was 25 yrs The guy bought it new when he was 25 yrs and kept it until he was 45 yrs and couldn't stand the kick anymore. When I reached my 50's I put a pad on it absolve the kick. I used it for 37 yrs and then bought a 12 ga pump for home defense. I still keep my single shot for varmint control.

@donrussell8889 6 лет назад

I can carry my 3 guns, no problem, total weight, silenced, scoped etc is 10.5 lbs, like a loaded garand. 60 gr Subsonic Aquila .22 ammo is 100 rds to the lb and is BB gun quiet thru the 223 silencer and the .22 unit and you can have a 30 rd box mag of it in the gun. It's dark half of the time and once it's dark, there's almost no advantage for any caliber over the silenced, subsonic .22lr autorifle. The caliber swap takes just 10 seconds, and the .22 unit weighs just 3/4 lb. 60 gr 223 softpoints weigh 35 to the lb, ditto 9mm ammo. 308 ammo is 18 rds to the lb, 12 ga shells are 10 to the lb, .45 and .30Ak are 22 to the lb. So I get to carry 50x as much ammo as the 12 ga users, have 3x the effective range, pierce soft armor, conceal the rifle under a jacket (taken down) and the 12 ga user can't find ammo even 10% as well as I can, post shtf. He has no silencer, either. I figure on 50 rds each, 223 and .22lr, cause there's plenty more cached. I only carry 1 spare mag of the 9mm ammo, so that's just 5 ozs.

I dont understand the saying "tough as nails" I cant tell you how many nails I've had bend Maybe i shouldn't ever be a carpenter idk

@arethmaran1279 4 года назад

Comes from a different time of smithing. Modern nails are thin and bend easily, the expression comes from the time where nails were the large iron square cylinder chunks that you often see in media depicting the colonial/antebellum period, and those suckers were really tough. About as tough as you'd expect a 5 lb solid chunk of wrought iron to be.

I picked up a H&R single shot 223 for under$200 bucks at a gun show about 15 years ago. At that time H$R had a barrel program where you could pick up additional bbls for from$75-125 each. I added 22 Hornet, 44Magnum, 35 Whelen, 45-70 plus, over the years I added options like thumbhole laminate stocks..even got two more receivers all from 2nd hand sellers. Basically, I got 5 accurate rifles for under a grand over a 15 year stretch of scrounging. I like the utility of that.

@cloudpuffer224 6 лет назад

I had an old 22 growing up that I kept on me camping until I was probably 16. I used that thing as a crowbar, a hammer, on one occasion I even used it as a fishing rod. That’s why I love kids rifles. They’re cheap, handy, light, and can replace half of the stuff in my truck.

Yeah, H&R was a great old company that made guns for everyday folks to use. They were sturdy, had blued finishes with walnut-stained wood. The blue was not like a Colt or a Winchester on any level and the wood was not walnut! Strictly for knocking around on the farm and being tossed behind the seat of the old truck, just in case you saw a Diamondback! I recommend #6 shot, works wonders on rattlesnakes... LOL!

The Rossi has no disconnector so it will fire as fast as you pump. Good practical choices, gentlemen.

My concealed carry is a Gen 2 Glock 19 (which is considered by many, myself included, to be just about the perfect concealed carry handgun) which is a police trade in. Other than holster wear, and the night sights needing to be replaced, the gun is in great condition. What I really love about it, though, is that it was previously owned by the Washington DC Metro Police. Like most of their Glocks, the serial number begins with MPDC instead of three letters followed by three numbers like retail Gen 2 Glocks. The reason why I love this so much is because Washington DC, and many of the higher-ups in their police department, are very anti-2nd Amendment and anti-concealed carry. It just feels like a big FU to the DC police department that my concealed carry gun used to be one of their duty guns.

Love the Remington you talked about around 13ish minutes into it, reminds me of my H&R Pardner Protector I picked up from Walmart for $179.99 and promptly fell in love with. Bought it to be a whatever gun, but I ended up replacing the Mossberg 590 with this as home protection! It shoulders better than my Mossberg and the cheap heavy steel would be one hell of a club if it ever came to that. Walmart special light put on the tube like yours as well I love it, though mine is lacking the camo duracoat you did to yours unfortunately.

@douglasmcneil8413 6 лет назад

I've been shooting for about 50 years now. Started when I was knee high to a grasshopper. Nothin' wrong with any of the guns you chose. Mostly going to depend on whats available and what you can afford at the time. for simplicity keeping the calibers few is a good idea. Spending money on fewer types of ammo means having more ammo for the calibers you shoot. Reloading is always a good way to go. Two things generally happen when you shoot a lot. First you get to be a better shot with the guns and ammo that you shoot the most. Second is your wallet gets thinner and lighter as you push dollar bills out the end of your barrel.

If you get a break action 12 gauge you can use adapters (they make Rifled ones up to 18+ inches long now) in a huge variety of calibers. You can also get adapters (or use old spent brass) and you can load them like a muzzleloader with black powder and shot or whatever turns you on. I really think a single shot, break action 12 gauge is the most utilitarian gun you can own. I mean you can get one cheap as hell, will work almost indefinitely and have a huge variety of options with it.

@StPaul76 7 лет назад

A 6,5x55 Swede is one very utilitarian rifle cartridge. With heavies it takes a moose easy, with lighter fmjhp's it shoots accurately out to 600yds and doesn't hack the meat of a smaller game and with very light and with a ballistic tip they turn smaller critters inside out. Recoil is lighter than .308 and down range ft.lbs. out at 100-200yds are the same and beyond, often more.

@GemCityHippie 7 лет назад

A word of caution on the Remington 870's. Pay careful attention to the age of the gun and shell length they're chambered for. It's common (especially with the older original 870 Wingmaster's) to find them with aftermarket barrels that might say chambered for 3 inch shells; when in reality the receiver is only chambered for 2 and 3 quarter inch shells. If you try and put a 3 incher into one of those, it won't eject properly and will jam things up pretty dang quick.

I would look at the 357 Mag revolver as more utilitarian. Shoot 38 Sp. or you can add a couple of shot shells in your options. And have all loaded at once. Of course the 44 mag/44 Special is an option too.

@danshaffer2890 7 лет назад

Eric, I know this is off topic, but this pertains to the 600 yard shooting vids. I think it will be interesting to see you shoot an M91/30 at that range. Not decked out or anything, just a normal off-the-shelf 91/30.

@chikkenbonz 3 года назад

What's great about a single shot shotgun is all the tube inserts different companies make nowadays...literally can shoot any caliber you can think of basically from one gun. When I hear "utilitarian" I think of versatility. One on my list would be an over/under combo gun such as a Savage Model 42 (.22 over .410). Don't remember,but there was a gun maker that made a combo of your choice of either .308 or .223 (or maybe it was .222?) over 12 or 20 ga. Possibly an older Savage model?

@fragleshnagle4256 6 лет назад

my first gun was a stevens (savage arms now) break action shotgun I got from my grandpa. full choke 35 in barrel, kicks like a mule, but my favorite part of single shot guns is that they teach you how to make your shots count. especially for new shooters

@davidhowe7844 7 лет назад

i never understood why people think you need a 3 1/2" magnum shell for turkey... a 2 3/4" shell works perfect. all it takes is 5 pellets to the head to effectively kill... i actually read a study that said a 3 1/2" magnum turkey load kicked harder than a .458 winchester i believe... its sad when a load used to kill a 20 pound bird kicks harder than a load used to kill an elephant

@TheMagnumChannel 7 лет назад

Those 3.5 inchers sure are fun though!!! Sending that kind of power down range just makes me happy! :D

@davidhowe7844 7 лет назад

Detective John Kimble I'm just saying you don't need a giant shotshell to kill a 20 pound bird.

@davidhowe7844 7 лет назад

Detective John Kimble people are getting into a power craze... all they want is more power at any cost when they don't even need it. a load of #4 out of a 2 3/4" shell will kill a turkey just as cleanly.. you don't need to blow the head clean off

@TheMagnumChannel 7 лет назад

David Howe...just want you to know I totally agree with you, but I am part of the power craze because I like it! 2.75" works fine (and did for a long time) but I use 3" almost exclusively now and use the big boomers when I'm feeling frisky! Lol 😂

@totoleheros7506 7 лет назад

The kick argument is a nonesense. You cannot compare a shotgun and a rifle on the kick. You need to take into account what you are shooting at the target. A single bullet vs a load of pellets. Try to kill an elephant with a shotgun and I believe you will need something longer than 3 1/" if you are throwing pellets at it.

Although not recommend, ive killed deer with 17hmr. But maybe check out the 70gr TSX loads. Theyd do good if the shot was perfect

replace the Glock with a.357 revolver and have the option of 2 calibers and shot loads. not knocking your Glock but shot loads work better on snakes and rats.

Miss the days (25 yes ago) when a Mauser, moson, or enfield could be found (well used as hammer etc) for 60 bucks. Most, after a cosmoline exorcism, shot remarkable. And a thousand rounds of stinky ammo was about the cost of one of the rifles. Many varmints in this valley gained respect of a crappy old milsurp with stinky ammo.

@thomassmestead2801 Год назад

I bought a NEF 12 gauge back in the 1980's for $97.00 at K-Mart. Best all around shotgun that I have. It can be 'converted' to black powder, shooting all sizes of shot, slugs, and even .72 caliber 'pumpkin balls'. The addition of shotgun inserts, allows one to shoot most pistol caliber calibers. I chose .45 Colt/410. And like you pointed out, with a 3" chamber, you can use it for turkey, as well. And then you can shoot regular 12 gauge ammunition through it, too.

@nathanlambshead4778 4 года назад

Old timer here. I would take a stainless wheelgun over a glock personally. A Taurus 962 would be perfect. 38/357/9mm 7 shot, in the mid 500s. Ammo versatility, plus not sensitive to different loads as auto loaders can be. From 38 soft loads to 357 mag 180 gr hard cast buffalo bore loads, to widely available (usually) 9mm with a quick cylinder change, it is 'bigly' utilitarian. Of course a Ruger, SW, Colt, all are great. but The Taurus is cheaper, and I have never had any issues with a Taurus wheelgun.

@nogoa42 7 лет назад

You said it in this video. "If it gets stolen out of your truck" There is a huge crack down here in Florida(and I am sure elsewhere) on guns stolen from vehicles or homes where the victim of the crime is put at fault because a piece of their property was stolen. Why isn't a bank put at fault for a bank robbery because of all the random money laying around? I have had guns stolen. I was younger and could not afford a safe, or was too young and naive and thought that I would not have been burglarized in the first place. Why are victims constantly accused of being the cause of their loss or pain when it is the perpetrator of the crime, and usually a felony, that should be the one ostracized? Sometime tanks are stolen off of military bases, bulldozers off of construction sites, but a guy looses his truck gun is the detriment to society. A bulldozer can do a hell of a lot more damage than a Mossberg 500.
