    Well Lads,

    As per title I'm after a Remington pump action. 

    Looking for a 12 gauge, multi choke and as close to a 24 inch barrel as possible. 28 inch is too long as it won't fit in a carry box on my quad.

    If anyone has something like the above let me know by PM. 

    I would cash out the bit extra for a Marine/nickel plated version as I really see this as a gun for life. I don't think they're all too common so if anyone knows of one lying around in an RFD I'd appreciate it.

    Thanks

    Got a Mossberg if that's any good.

    Thanks John. I would have included the mossberg but the Remington is supposed to be that little bit more durable/better built.

    Sure PM me the spec of the gun i.e. barrel length, chokes, model, stock, age, price etc. No harm in having options.

    Not sure if you got my pm I bought my Mossberg new with a 24" cylinder barrel but found it had no range so bought a 28" multi choke barrel, fired about 300 rounds and cannot get used to it. Would take 350 euros for it.

    I didn't actually get a PM but thanks for that info John.

    I'm waiting on a dealer to get back to me with concrete figures on a Marine so I'll know by Monday what way I'm gonna go.

    Thanks for all the PM's and posts lads BTW.
