Anyone else besides Vang Comp?

[gregshin]

I'd like to take my 870 and my 11-87 police for some custom work...i was thinking maybe sending them to Novak's. Is any other great shops that can do awesome shotgun work?

Try Benny Hill

He has a great name on the competition sites.

pretty much any gunsmith can do vang comp work to a shotgun...

Hans is the best. He was the first to really start refining tactical shotgun. Put a VANGCOMP shotgun near any other smiths work and you will see a great difference. Shoot it next to them and you will really be able to tell. call Hans when he gets back from the Shot Show.

Had a Vang comped 870. The barrel did what it was marketed to do, but I have since decided that small patterns are not I want from a shotgun. I since sold the barrel and have not missed it. IIRC you can now buy ammo that patterns as tight as my Vang Comped barrel did if that's what you want.

The rest was mostly just bolt-on parts from Scattergun Tech/Wilson.

He messes with the cone in the barrel and adds a bunch of porting....something people have been doing forever....He must add special gnomes to the gun when he works on it?

I have two Vang Comp shotguns. A Benelli M1 Sup 90 tactical without the ports and a brand new 870 ported with syn forend and stock.

I have shot the Benelli. It patterns a tight group. Have noy had a chance to shoot the 870 yet.

I too have a Vang 870. I sent him a 1963 870 and then got everything done to it. Shoots really well.

I have a VangComp 870 and it is a great gun, but with the new Federal Flight-Control wad buck, you can get tighter groups with a Big5 home defense 870 at $300.

Glockworks just polishes the trigger parts in a glock and welds/machines a little here and there, something people have been doing forever.
Maybe Alec also adds special gnomes to the gun when he works on it?

The trick is to know how much to do here and how much to do there.
Vang KNOWS.

Yeah, I like Vangs work as well. Not sure why there are so many haters out there. Sticker shock I guess.

[AR-shogun]

Im not really sure if they are " Vang Hater's". I think it might be that people are really just looking for a cheaper way of accomplishing the same thing.

i'm lookin' through the site and i can't figure out what is so outstanding about vangcomps

[randy]

Vang shotguns work as advertised. If that's not what you want don't get one. If you are looking for reduced recoil faster follow up shots and a tight pattern then he's the guy.

I don't think Bennie works on Remingtons he might but he's known for his work on Benellis.
