Just bought one of these. I hate the stock and am going to replace it, but other than that it's fun to shoot.

I'll have to do the special knock when I come Trick or Treating. Hope you have a great New Year.!

You too! It's funny, I had to evacuate for the fires for 5 days and forgot to lock up the firearms I had removed from my car after a day at the range. My neighbor, who did not evacuate, came over and put them into my safe. Two shotguns, a PCC, a .22 rifle and four handguns. She said she thought I had watched too many Terminator movies, lol.

Your neighbor has access to your gun safe? That's a trusted neighbor!

I cannot think of a worse thing than to rob a Jewish widow.

most people have gone out of their way to help everyone, people have been volunteering to haul live stock, put up people they don't know....but there are always a few that try to take advantage of a tragedy. While we have had no problems in our area, other areas have had looting going on and have taken to doing armed patrols.

What is it? I may want one. I may not. But I would like to consider it.
It's a VR80 semi auto 12 gauge. Imported by Rock Island Armory from Turkey. Like many things, almost impossible to find now. I was lucky.

i'm of the age a 20 gauge would be much more appealing.
I know with AR's it is best to run them wet, same here?
Most likely 12 gauge will not have a selector setting for "sprinkle" as the Vietnam vets would describe.
We have some cool options up here in Canada (believe it or not), and here is a Turkish made 20 ga. Semi Auto:

Very interesting, thank you.
Not sure if they are available in the US; we have different laws up here regarding shotguns, some of which are prohibited in the US. We are still able to get Norinco Firearms here (not available in the US due to import restrictions) , and they have a lot of interesting, extremely well made, shotguns for bargain basement prices. Note that with our dollar value, they would be $250 -$350 USD.

Yes, not a great fan of the godless communist red chinese right now what with the weaponized virus attack on the world. Turkey is making a lot of really fine firearms and shotguns, some on the AR style platform. But then scripture speaks of the anti-christ coming from Greece, and at the time that was written western Turkey was a part of Greece and erdrogan is an avowed muslim and no friend of Israel.

Back in the 80’s I knew a lot of guys who wanted a Browning Auto-5. Only one guy I knew actually bought one and loved it. They were pricey though. The only shotgun I ever owned was a Winchester 12 gauge pump with interchangeable choke tubes. It was decent and much cheaper at $150 back in the early 80’s vs. $500 for the Browning Auto-5.

the Model 12 was a gangsters favorite as it came apart and held extra rounds.
So many of us are urban or too old to bird hunt, things have changed for us.
Our Hunters Safety Classes we get a lot of ladies, and of course with young people the 20 gauge has less recoil so developing a flinch is avoided. Generally slugs for deer hunting are more accurate the smaller the gauge, 20 gauge makes a good deer round.

IMO; For those of us on the outside looking in, the virus has been "weaponized" domestically through wide spread denial and inaction; and not in China.

There are a lot of Christian Turks that are employed in those arms factories in Turkey too BTW, just like every plant in Canada and the US is employing non Christians. Free trade = peaceful coexistence; protectionism results in paranoid narcissism.
