Shot guns

[Voodoo]

So im looking into getting a shot gun for my next purches. But i need to know a few things before i actualy get one.

Gas or Spring, whats better for indoor?
if gan can, i use propane with the lub in it?
Company. who do you recomend?

I really like the TM style of shot gun shells where you get 10 shots with 1 shell, are their any other companies that do this too? doesnt have to be 10 shots per round though.

Are there alot of accesories for these guns? alls i really want is a good rail system for a sight (like the CA870 charger) and places for flash lights and other stuff.

Thanks
Jeremy

First, it's one word: shotgun. Secondly, there are multiple threads on the forum with similar or identical subjects, just search!

[TheToastmaster]

Indeed. Search.
All of these questions (except perhaps for the one about "lub"??) have been answered many times, and recently too.

Bloody hell it's SHOTGUN not "shot gun".........ahgg! That's so foul, I'm not going to sleep tonight.

To be blunt, I care. ESL aside, the way I see it, people who don't bother to spell check mean they don't have enough respect for me to go through the time and effort to make sure I can read and understand their question.

I try to treat people with the same respect I would expect for myself, so I take the time to edit and check my posts. It's also why I might know the answer to a question and choose not to post - why would I want to take my valuable time and help someone who would openly disrespect myself and others here?

Besides, having obvious and easily-corrected spelling and grammatical problems make you look like a moron.

Here's your freebie: TM shotguns are excellent indoors, but have virtually no upgrades or accessories available (rails and such).

Marushin gas shotguns are also very good, but might be a little hot for CQB using propane. They also have limited accessories.

Maruzen springers (CA870) are acceptable, but in my experience will usually be outgunned by an small AEG or GBB in close quarters.

Maruzen gas shotguns are not very good without some effort and money put into them to make them skirmish-worthy, but with good tuning can be an exellent CQB weapon.

Both types of Maruzen shotguns have rails and internal upgrades available if you take the time to look.

Well thank you very much. I understand where you are comming from on the respect issue, thats why i sign all my post with my real name.

I thought the CA870 was a gas. Now that i know its spring i am very excited.
I dont like buying gas for more stuff if i dont have too, its a bit too expencive for a college student. How is the "mag" shell, is is multiple shots or just 1 blast per shell?

Thanks
Jeremy

The mag holds 40 rounds, and each pump loads one round. The CA870 is less like a shotgun and more line a pump-action sniper rifle.

[Voodoo]

Sounds like fun, is it a really good shot like a VSR or is it more like a MP?

Are their any gas or spring shotguns other than Marue that shoot 3 bb triangle?

Thanks
Jeremy

[Greylocks]

So far as I know, only Marui has the 3 barrel system. And thanks for making an effort with your spelling and grammar.
Next step, your Profile. Canada is a big place... if you add a city, we can direct you to local help.

Im in Calgary and i go through Ken at 007 for my stuff, or i use Tac-Ops group orders at WGC.

There are 2 different butts to the 870 and i dont much like the simple stock on the one but i would like to know if you need to change the grip to put a new stock on it?
I ask this because on the version with the stock, the grip and place there the sliding stock attach are 1 piece and the stuby had a really wierd looking thing on the end.

Thanks
Jeremy

You will need to replace the pistol grip to add a different stock on a CA870.

I assume the "weird looking thing" you're talking about is the two "loops" on top of the pistol grip? That's there the top-folding stock attaches on the real deal.




However, you can attach a stock for a real Remington 870 to the CA 870 - the only difference in the length of the bolt that attaches it. Of course, some of the stocks shown below cost more than double the price of a CA870....

Perfect, thank you very much
