  1. Cody, Did you get the PM I sent you the other day? I'm still interested if the ammo is still for sale. Thanks, Jim
  2. That was painful. Sorry all...
  3. Wow, this is a hot thread/topic.
  4. This is punishment for being a lurker I guess.
  5. I wonder why the needed posts for an e-mail is 20, while for a PM it is 15.
  6. Interesting, it requires 30 seconds between posts.
  7. It wouldn't even let me respond to your PM.
  8. I tried to PM you, but it requires 15 posts for a PM.
  9. This forum requires twenty posts for an e-mail.
  10. Hi, I tried to PM you, but apparently my post count has to be above fifteen to do this. Maybe I should spam out a quick 13 posts. Nevermind... I live in the Omaha area, are you close? If so, I may be interested. What do you have for sale? Jim
  11. What kind of stock does your shotgun currently have on it? If it has a standard stock with the side sling plate, I'll trade you straight-up for my pistol grip. I live in Omaha by the way, so quick trip to Lincoln. Let me know, Jim
  12. Hi Cravin, I check this board from time to time and when I read your post, I figured I should register. I deer hunt first season shotgun in Iowa every year, and for the past five years I’ve been using a Benelli M1. Mine is a tactical model with 18.5” barrel, ghost ring sight, and 4 shot magazine extension; however, mine has the standard stock instead of the pistol grip. I’ve settled on this shotgun because it’s great for the type of hunting we do. We hunt in the Des Moines River valley near Stratford and the area consists of timber and some pretty steep hills for Iowa. We do lots of walking, pushing and posting, and the M1 is the perfect brush gun. It’s light, quick to the shoulder, fast cycling, and reliable. I use an improved cylinder choke and rifled slugs with the factory sights. This is a great setup if you are on the move and your shots aren’t much beyond 50 yards. I love it and have taken three deer with it. If I were sitting in a tree stand I’d probably use my 870 with rifled barrel, scope, and sabot slugs. That gives me decent groups for deer vitals at 100 yards. I don’t hunt turkey, but I see no reason why the M2 with 18.5” barrel wouldn’t be effective with the right choke. I would use it; it’s a great shotgun.
