Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Thanks! This makes me feel better about this move... hope to see some of y'all there!
  2. Thanks Dan, have you shot any matches in Harvard? Are they any good?
  3. So I am PCSing to Nashua, New Hampshire to be a Marine Corps Recruiter. The issue with this is that I haven't been able to find any matches in the area... and coming from SoCal this could possibly make a very long 3 years... anyone know anything about any matches in the area? Thanks! Mack
  4. I agree with thecelt, I WAS able to get this completed FINALLY this weekend. Waited for a Nordic spring to come in and cut it until it worked, it's somewhere around 9.5 in past the mag tube. It's a painstaking process going slowly and I did it AFTER I polished the shell catch. Test fired it this week and it seems to be running like a top!
  5. Good call Bob, I will ensure that I do that! Thecelt: make sure to tell us how it goes!
  6. I replaced my spring with a Nordic as well and cut it to length, I haven't attempted high brass which I may have to do. Hmm. This weekend I will actually have time to do the mod from that link above... I'll report my findings on the effectiveness! I really hope it helps because I also don't like playing this game with finding a gun that works out of the box
  7. Haha Thegunnerd... If I was allowed a second shotgun I wouldn't worry about it but personally I prefer "rack pt". Twoyellowlabs: what's the best way to contact them/wait times? I'm sure they are pretty busy most of the time. I may go that route depending on that link I posted above (whether I ever get time to actually do that)
  8. http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/lid=15831/GunTechdetail/Fixing-A-Mossberg-930-Feed-From-The-Tube-Problem So I think this may be the issue, I'm going to try this and I'll report to y'all. Thanks for for the idea George. I feel like this is a fairly common issue.
  9. Haha thanks gents, Yelrdog, I will absolutely give Spurlocks a call (and your welcome... though I always thought that sounded arrogant to respond like that, I do appreciate the thanks), and yes jriera I could be considered a "California Resident" due to my PCS orders... but only in the loosest of terms. I don't pay CA tax, I don't have identification saying I am a resident, I can't vote there etc. So I am a Texas resident relocated. Flatland Shooter, thanks for the heads up. I don't NEED to buy a gun in NV but since when do any of us NEED to buy guns and I could always make a short drive out to Yuma, AZ if I wanted non CA legal
  10. Hmm I will look when I get home tomorrow and post some pictures.
  11. Sweet! Thanks dood! I'm looking for a long gun anyways! And I'm only stationed there... My residency is in Texas.
  12. I have a Mossberg 930 JM pro. So I would like to start of with I have checked the ultimate 930 thread and I think I have a slightly different issue. I thought it was a "regular" feed stop malfunction that could be corrected by spring length adjustment. I bought a spare mag tube spring and tried varied lengths from 14" past the tube extension down to 7" past the tube. Nothing worked. I then noticed that when a shell is inserted (standard 2 3/4" 1 oz and 1 1/8 oz bird shot) the head of the shell is loading about an 1/8" inside the tube instead of flush (as a baseline I also put the same shells in a Benelli M1014, a Mossberg 500 and a Rock Island M5). This results (I'm not sure how directly) in my malfunctions. The exactly description of my malfunctions are as follow: bolt goes home to the breech without loading shell, will load and extract/eject shell when round inserted into the ejection port for loading but then will only sometimes reload shotgun from mag tube. When I have shells in the magtube and the bolt to the rear I press the bolt catch and it will sometimes load two shells into the riser jamming the gun and other times load one shell onto the riser (not the breech) and kick one out the bottom of the loading port. I did call Mossberg (this is a brand new gun) and they told me I could send it in with a mailing address and a description of the issue but they don't know how long it will take to fix. This is my only personal semi auto gun and I use it for three gun (or would if I could get it running). Thanks in advance!
  13. Hey ladies and gents! I'm going to be in Nevada next week and can't seem to find legit information about whether I can buy a firearm there. I am a Texas resident stationed out in Kommiefornia. Any help would be great!
  14. ^^ I appreciate the help, that is probably what I am going to do! Thank you ltdmstr!
  15. We checked an undersized case gauge and the rounds fit in it without an issue (Lyman Case Gauge)
