M1 Field, my tight cover uplander

Recommended Posts

Got the gun two months ago and found the barrel band was busted. That 28" bbl is still not back, 8 weeks. Patience.....

Anyway, reason I wanted it in the first place was to make the gun you see here. I hunt Grouse in some groves where a 28" gun just makes you mad. Even a 24" seems to get caught. Had an M1 Tactical 18.5 previously but ended up selling it before I got a chance to bother grouse with it.

 

Barrel is 21" VR with screw in chokes. Got it nib on Gunbroker last week for $225

 

Year of Manufacture is BN or 2000

 

Weight in this config is 6lb 4oz

OAL is 42"

Put a +4 extension on the M1 for comparison, 9 shots in this config. Be nice for some pepper poppers.
