Recently we reviewed a budget-friendly pump shotgun from Stevens, the 320 Tactical in 20 gauge. It’s a quality shotgun at a great price. Along those lines, the company has just introduced a double-barrel model that’s also easy on the wallet – the Stevens 555 Enhanced Over and Under. From the company… 555 Enhanced Over-And-Under Stevens has dovetailed […]

Stevens 320 20-Gauge Pump-action Shotgun: Full Review
I’m thinking a 20-gauge shotgun for home defense is kind of like Miller Lite. You know, all the great taste, but with half the calories. If you’ve fired different types of shotguns, it’s obvious that recoil can be all over the map. Some load and gun combinations are relative pussycats, allowing one to fire hundreds […]
Three Ideas For Home Defense On A Budget
This article originally appeared at Ammoland. By Tom McHale USA –-(Ammoland.com)- If you listen to White House Press Secretaries, you’ll keep hearing things like “unemployment is at the lowest rate in 43 million years…” and other such nonsense. Wow! If that were actually true, then right now, at this moment, we wouldn’t have more American’s […]
Gun Review: Stoeger P3000 Pump-action Shotgun
When I think of Stoeger, the picture that always comes to mind is that of the classic Stoeger Coach shotgun. I shot one of these at “rabbit” clay targets bounding across the Cody, Wyoming brush a few years ago at a Shooting Industry Masters event and was instantly hooked. A side-by-side design, the Coach models […]
Gearing Up A Defensive Shotgun
Some time ago, we took a close look at the Beretta 1301 Tactical shotgun. It’s made for defensive use, and even the vanilla model might get a few funny looks on the skeet range. Since that time, I’ve been experimenting with various customizations to the Beretta 1301 Tactical. I wanted to see, by trial, error, […]
Gun Review: Benelli 828U Over-Under Shotgun
When a new gun comes my way for a look, the very first thing I want to understand is what’s different about it. After all, if there’s nothing different, better, or at least less expensive, then what’s the point? In the case of the Benelli 828U over and under shotgun, I think the “what’s different” […]
What Makes a Kick-Ass Home Defense Shotgun?
It’s hard to argue that a shotgun doesn’t make an ideal home defense weapon. While capacity in terms of shell count will almost always be less than that of a semi-automatic pistol or modern sporting rifle, each one of those shells delivers a whole lot more impact that most any other choice. Kinetic energy measurements […]
The Wide World of Remington 870 Shotguns
A lot of neato stuff happened in 1950, along with some serious unpleasantries. North Korea invaded their southern sibling, starting a tragic war masquerading as a police action. On the more positive side of things, the first self-service elevator was installed by the Otis Corporation. Zenith introduced the first television remote control and appropriately named […]
Exactly How Precise Is A Shotgun?
At this point, you might be thinking, “He’s using the words precise AND shotgun in the same sentence? Is this guy nuts?” Well, that depends. I’m talking about whether a shotgun can be “precise” or not. We won’t discuss my sanity just yet. The potential precision of your shotgun depends on careful matching of your […]
