Why does the internet hate shotguns with pistol grip stocks so much?

the forend length is nice, but the factory foreend beats the hell out of my hand with buckshot and slugs. I kinda want to buy the Cadex one but I also want to sell it and then buy a police 870 for cheaper

The Cadex stuff is nice. They had one setup a One Shot that I got to finger up.

It's basically a mossberg 500 with a crossbolt safety instead of a gang safety.

I think pistol grips on any long gun that doesn't also have a detachable magazine, which extends down at least as far as the grip, are dog ugly.

I.e. pistol grip mossy 500s look like shit but saigas are sexy. That's just like, my opinion, though.
>>
The only kind of shotgun I like is about two feet in length or less.

I don't find stocks useful on shotguns. I can point shoot better than most people can bead shoot. Every bird I've killed has been a point shot, and no bird I've shot has got away. I learned to shoot clays without using the bead because I'm a retard.

>but muh slugs
Stocks are useful for shooting slugs up to 100 yards, but I think slug guns are dumb. If I need to shoot solid projectiles at things far away then I have a .338

In general I like high capacity firearms. If someone invented a shotgun with detachable high cap mags that could be left loaded for years without deforming the shells I would buy it, then make it short enough that people wonder if I'm breaking any laws.

I do find it funny how many people buy pistol grip only shotguns then sell them after the first shoot.

Pawn shop. I bought my used mossy for $208 after tax.

Pistol grip only gets the hate, not stocked pistol grips.

Though there are lots of reports of long time shooters developing wrist trouble after shooting pgs a lot.sorta like magnum pistols
>>
>>30105412
> what are all brass shells?
Expensive and hard to come by.
>>
>>30105412
I could buy those. That would be cool.

Or I could get some steel shells made.

I'm not sure that the hulls won't still deform, the diameter is large and a strong spring is needed to properly cycle heavy loads. I think a different magazine design would be necessary.

I like double tubes, and I'd like to see a double tube shotgun with detachable tubes

Pretty sure the VEPR-12 has 12-round mags available.

I don't know if the internet at large dislikes them, but in 3gun/IPSC shotgun/other shotgun action shooting sports, the pistol grip gets in the way of modern twin/quad loading techniques for no real benefit. No reason to skip the pistol grip if you're shooting anything with a detachable box mag in open though.

And clay shooting sports are still really conservative/fuddy.
>>
>>30105121
Would you recommend that 870 setup? Specifically the Surefire forend and the stock/grip adapter?

Asking here because the previous shotgun thread is dead.

Are there any box-mag conversions for pump action shotguns that aren't shit, but also don't make impossible to take out the box and use the tube?

If you want a serious answer, what are your needs?
>>
>>30108727
I want an NY legal shotgun that can accept box mags, but, if something goes wrong, can be readily switched to feeding from the tube .
>>
>>30108815
I'm no expert on NY legalities, but one thing I can tell you with certainty none of these mag fed pumps can still use the tube.
>it's an either-or proposition
>>
>>30105025

You can be just as fast with one as the other when it really comes down to it. But for the most part its inferior so there is no real reason to use it. It mainly appeals to tactical timmys.

Its like increasing your bore axis on a pistol for no reason, the pistol grip puts the strong hand in a position where it cant do as much to manage recoil as a traditional stock, and it make sthe shotgun awkward to manipulate.

Again, there are people who use both well, but in general the worlds fastest shotgunners are using traditional stocks.
>>
>>30108877
Ok, that still helps, thanks for making that clear.

It looks fucking stupid on most of them.

>>
>>30108309

Do you really feel an advantage from irons on the shotgun?

I doubt your putting slugs out to 200 yards regularly and you can find plenty of people shooting slugs out to 100 yards with just a bead.

It must certainly be quite a lot slower to get a sight picture through iron sights than with a bead.
>>
>>30108309
>>30110052

There is actually of hickock 45 shooting a mossberg 590 and wilson combat 870 with iron sights and he claims to love both but he is noticeably slower shooting the 870 in the video and not appreciably more accurate with either gun.
>>
>>30106942
The rounds counts are really high in clay games and the repeated high impulse, low rate recoil through the pistol grip into you hand becomes extremely uncomfortable, to the point of being making it difficult to use hand afterwards. A more traditional stock transfers more recoil directly to the shoulder. Fuddy or not, the clay games are competitive enough that if it worked, people would be grafting wood pistol grips onto their B-guns.
