Feets / Collection / My build 1 year with PAL

Post image

Here’s my current collection, from top to bottom:

- Mossberg 500
- Ruger American Gen 1 30.06
- Mossberg 590 (9-shot)
- Federation SA-4 (Benelli M4 Clone)
- Ruger 10/22 Carbine

I’m planning to get another plinker, either a lever-action or an AR-15-style .22 with a red dot sight. Additionally, I’m looking to join another range and participate in an IPSC and precision shooting program, which could help me avoid the handgun freeze.

P.S. I have no issues with the M4 Clone. Since it’s gas-operated, as long as you clean it regularly, it fires beautifully.

I wanted to be the odd one out 😉

I think auto-correct accidentally has your post saying self-defence instead of ‘predator defence’ for the 590, I’d recommend you fix that….

Good call! Removed the description for the guns.

Which one of the shotguns have you found most reliable? I'm getting my PAL soon (whenever the damn CFO processes my application) and I'm looking to get a really good/reliable starter shotgun.

I've heard good things about the Maverick 88

You can’t go wrong with the Mossberg 500, but I personally prefer the 590. It’s built a bit tougher.

You can also go with the “military-grade” variant, the 590A1, which is built like a tank.
