Feets / Collection / My build Nearly an Italian Classic

Post image

I promised to my bank account that there would be no gun except Carmel coming later Summer.

However I could not pass the last A300 UP with discount…

Took it apart, cleaned and bathed it with oil

Now I need to put some accessories on it and bring this beauty to the range

Mine had oil coming out of the stock and basically every crevice. Took it completely apart, cleaned and oiled. I've added an S&J mag tube extension, Kick's choke, rep Surefire w/ pressure pad, Vortex Triumph red dot, Pro lifter, Mesa Tactical Urbino Stock. It cycles any bird shot, buck shot or slug I've put through it. Amazing shotgun.

What’s your opinion on the mesa stock? I’ve been hesitant because I read reviews that the stock is only friction fit and can rotate after shooting a bunch

I could see that. My experience is pretty short-term, so it hasn't moved for me. My only small gripe is the grip area where your thumb to index webbing sits is more squared than rounded. The Chisel Machining stock is probably the better option but at a much higher price point. I actually like the factory stock except I couldn't get a good cheek weld.
