Nailed it.. exactly what I did....in reverse order. Dumbest think I ever did was let the Remington go... (it was a nice Wingmaster version). If I just known to lengthen the butt pad, I would still have the gun. Here's a hint -- with shotguns, fit is everything !

THParent, have you seen one of these? A co-worker just brought it in and showed it to me.

There is an inRange review of it on YouTube. It keyholes at something like 5yds.

Hard pass

According to today's prices, we sent about $400 downrange.

I hear you !
Sometime ago, DW looked into the gunsafe (she has one shelf to store jewelry and papers), and asked what the guns are worth. (I hope that when I go, she doesn't sell them for what I told her !). Nowadays, I'm guessing the ammo supply is worth more than guns !
 
An oldie but a goodie! Kinda what freedom looks like or what I imagine @THParent's Rec Room looks like!;)
 
Looking for some advice...

Bought some stripped lowers in bulk, fortunately awhile ago while still at a normal price. I just noticed one has a tight fit with my PMags. The mags fit, but do not drop out. I need to pull them out.

I guess my choices are to enlarge the mag well with a file, sand down a few mags and make them dedicated to this lower, or to buy a different brand/materal mag for that particular lower and hope it has a better fit.

Suggestions? Thanks.

A glossary just for me? I read this thread to improve my professional knowledge. The verbs I get, the nouns I’m a bit hazy on. 😂😂🙄🙄 Not really asking anything, just eating my 🍿.
