How do you like the top folder on the Mav? I remember the one I shot back when being a bit uncomfortable, but very fun, and it does look badass.

Honestly haven't been able to shoot it yet, just picked it up. I wanted a compact shotgun with a pistol grip, but still wanted a stock on it. The folding stock seemed like the best of both worlds.

I own/owned many shotguns in different configurations from different manufacturers.
This Maverick 88 appealed to me due to the low price, reputation and folding stock.
I shot it couple times, thought it was a neat gimmick, and after years of sitting in a safe I sold it.
Its cool - and I love gimmicky guns - but this not practical for really anything and sucked to shoot unfolded.1

The big one is called the "big toe" , then it's the "pointer toe", "middle toe", "ring toe". most people call the little one the "pinky toe". I think the names are mostly the same as fingers

How do you find the ATI SKS to shoot? Have heard mixed reviews but stock is running low across the board it seems haha

I've got the exact same Canadian 3-gun, with a KSG instead of the Mossberg.
How's the TM shoot?

It's the Canadian holy trinity of guns haha. The TM shoots great, other than the odd jam. I found as long as you clean it after every use, the jams are almost non existent

lol this is a Canada brag post but it looks like our loadout when we were 12 heading out into the woods in the USA.

The selection in Canada is not great when you have a government that classes anything that looks somewhat modern as "assault style" and bans them

I’d be embarrassed to own a bubba SKS. The Derya .22 is pretty corny too.

I'd be embarrassed to be a gun snob. Especially in canada where there's like 5 options left. 🙄

If you’re smart enough to look beyond the cabelas bargain bin there’s actually a lot of nice firearms still available for ownership.

A wood SKS will always be hotter than anything polymer.

u/Response-Cheap Mar 27 '26
I like both. Some people missed the boat on all the modern stuff that's now prohib, and a bubba'd SKS is the closest thing they'll ever own. Y'all gotta stop worrying about your own taste so much and think about the millions of other perspectives. Looks are subjective. To each their own. I think everyone should have a few SKS's. 🤷🏻♂️

I respect that. But I still think wood on an SKS is scorching hot. Hotter than the sun. 🌞
It’s like milk, I don’t care if everyone suddenly likes hot milk because cold milk is banned. Cold milk will always be better.
And don’t you step into my analogy world, we’re on thin ice already.
