    870 Tactical for hunting

    I've seen some guys hunting with pistol grip stocks for hunting (esp turkey and dove)
    What are advantages of having the pistol grip? This is more for dove, quail, and waterfowl.
    I'm looking at this


    Thanks guys

    Hey, Max Payne seemed to have little trouble hitting stuff with a PG shotgun...just make sure you have the plug in..

      The only advantage is if this the type of stock you are used to shooting all the time. It comes down to using the type of stock you shoot more often. If you bust thousands of caps a year with a PG type stock but then go out and hunt a couple times a year with a convention stock, you may not shoot as well. I have started featuring the Knoxx SpecOps on my custom slug guns. This is a recoil reducing stock that has a pistol grip. A guy who shoots only conventional type stocks would not be comfortable with this weapon but many would. Use what fits you.

      If you're going to a gun fight, take a shotgun. If you can't take a shotgun, don't go.

        gdun,
        I'm under the same situation as you .I'm all for getting the SF3. The problem about the PG isn't big for me, but the problem here is I am a lefty and there have been reports of the shell holders hitting your face:
        One note about the SF-III stock, if you're left-handed the shell holders will bite you square in the face. Our demo shooter is a lefty and found that out the first time he fired the demo gun when we installed the SF-III
        It seems like a nice stock set and I like the shell holders a LOT, but those are the two problems I'm wondering of.

        I bumped an older thread here but have got no response yet.
        A main reason I might get this is because I can switch the stock and foreend out with ease.
