>non restricted in canada
wew lad. although 3+1 seems limited. thoughts?
It is limited. But obviously it's for concealment, primarily. So you make due. Is the Fabarm Stf 12 available in Canada?
Actually, 3+1(in the chamber)+1 (on your finger)
>>29300393
Pretty impractical but fun
You are much better off with a full shotgun
most useless gun i own but lots of fun, i would buy it again especially if it was 3+1. I will say, if you do get something like that, get the tamer grips if it doesnt come with them. It makes a huge difference, especially when shooting slugs and buck shot.
>>29300393
>unrestricted
Not with that pistol grip fitted it ain't, that's a handgun as far as the RCMP are concerned. You need to have a conventional rifle grip, or a pistol grip with a stock for that to not be a handgun.
On the flip-side, you can get the ones that take detachable box magazines.

This, and this.
5+1 in the Grizzly 8.5" is a bucket of fun too, just not the most practical if you don't have sunglasses/earpro.
>>29300562
pistol grips on a shotgun aren't restricted though iirc. the only clause is length, which has to be past 470mm altogether.
>>29301164
also from what i read, the OAL limit only applies if it's a semi automatic, not pump action?
>>29301192
I think there's still a ~26" OAL limit for any long-guns.
When they're semi auto, then it OAL and Barrel length that are taken into consideration.
>MFW trying to figure out this countries fucking back-asswards laws.
>>29301388
i think you're right. and yeah the laws are asinine. i should just go to texas and embrace my inner bbq.
Can't you put a lot of those small shells in one?
>>29301192
26" OAL for both, the mag cap of 5 rounds is the one that sticks to semi-auto shotties.
>pic related, both Restricted, though the top is close to NR length.
>>29300458
Three round magazine capacity? It might as well simply be triple barrelled, especially at that length where it won't be all that extra heavy.
>>29302065
Where would yu get short mossberg 500 barrels in Canada? I hear you cannot cut them yourself but a gun smith can? Or if it comes manufactured that length
>>29302351
How short are we talking? You can sometimes find a 14 inch conversion kit for the 590 that fits the 500 as well, generally it's about 400 dollars though.
>>29302351
You can cut your own barrels down to 18.5'', but anything shorter you need to buy manufactured. As it is, finding any kind of barrel for a Mossberg shotgun in this country seems to be a fucking pain unless you want a rifled slug barrel or a 28'' ribbed hunting one.
If anyone on here knows where to pick up 18.5'' Mossberg barrels here I'd be very grateful.
>>29302934
Post a wanted ad on the CGN buy and sell page. That's how I found one.
>>29300393
and you'll go to jail when you need to use it to defend your life
>>29302312
The lockwork and manufacturing for a multi-barrel is a hell of a lot more complicated than taking a pump-action and chopping it down.
Silly canada, those laws don't make any sense.
>>29302312
3+1 is more than 1+1+1
Triple-barrel shotguns are very expensive, and not generally available in stubby forms (the Chiappa is like 1600-1800 buckaroos)
They're also pretty heavy, and have varied points of impact.
>>29303543
But I already addressed the weight issue, obviously those extra barrels get heavy, but if it's that extremely short, it would mitigate it.
>>29300393
>pump action
>>29303006
Well, they could make one with multiple triggers. Probably reuse the mechanism from a double barrelled one. And take advantage of it by having different barrels, say, two 12 gauges and a 20, or one for slugs.
>>29303622
>buy expensive triple-barrel gun
>bubba takes the hacksaw to it instead of buying a purpose built shorty pump
>>29305505
That's why it would make sense for it to be purposefully made for places like Canada, and practical, tailor made cost cutting measures could be figured out.
>>29300458
The way Canadian gun laws are, the magazine limit is specifically for the caliber the magazine is *intended* for, not what it's actually used for. So it would be just as legal to have a 5 round 10 or 12 gauge magazine, and load 6 20 gauge shells into it, assuming that that is actually possible.
