SHOTGUN
on-site gunsmith at Gunsite. Please don’t get wrapped around the axel with the word “tactical”; it has been beaten to death by the gun/shoot- ing industry. Just because its painted black, OD or coyote brown, doesn’t make an object tactical. I prefer to look at the tactic part of the word. For example, I had to use the appropriate tactics when I explained to my wife the shotgun project was only about work. She threw the BS flag, but I had
50
to try. Better work on my tactics for explaining to her the next project. Back to the important stuff —
building my home-defense shotgun. Robbie and I both agreed the 870 was the best platform to build on. I know there are other shotguns out there, but I’ve spent so much time with the 870, it didn’t make sense to go outside the box on this one. I wanted to keep the gun as simple as possible. No sense in hanging all
kinds of stuff on the gun I didn’t need. The shotgun needed good sights, a white light for identifying friend or foe, a place to keep some extra ammo and a sling. Robbie suggested I let him machine a magazine extension — more ammo on board is a good thing, and I’m not planning on going for a long walk with this shotgun.
