oddjob Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Any ideas (extended tubes) ?? Ant thoughts as to who's working on the BPS any more? This is going to be my Heavy Metal shotgun..........Called Briley and they don't make any. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AH6IP Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Nobody makes one for the BPS (commercially). the thread pattern is 15 TPI, which is a very odd tpi. But, putting two together (turned, brazed, etc) with a sleeve works great. Its just like a SX2 practical mag tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oddjob Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Very sweet!! Do you still like the BPS for a pump gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AH6IP Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 IMHO-it is the best you can find. And I like the bottom loading feature, and contrary to opinion, you can load directly to the chamber if you go dry with a little practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcb Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I like my BPS also. I have the 3.5 inch stalker and also made my own magazine extension. Started with a Tac-Star +5 extension for an 870 and a spare magazine cap. Bored out the 870 threads and pressed in the BPS magazine cap and away I went. I love the lack of lifter plate, I grab two shells at at time from my stripper drop one in the loading port and then push that one and the second one into the magazine with one motion. And as AH6IP said loading direct to the chamber isn't that bad with a little practice. My three gun setup mcb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hey oddjob, call Choate directly. Although they don't list it, I bought the tube for Auto 5 (I think) and it worked without any problems. Nice gun but I sold it last year with the tube after cutting myself too many times loading (those sharp edges at the bottom look nice but they are like razors when you try to go fast with loading 4!)

Sc0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Browning product #: 012244371 20" barrel 12g 3" Cylinder bore with fixed choke 7rd magazine tube Synthetic Stock. 7lbs, 8oz Trying to offload my 3.5" 12g Stalker to buy one... The only bad thing that I see is that the barrel is proprietary to this model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
