Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Just traded my Cobray for a new Norinco m87, a faithful repro of the Winchester 1887 lever action shotgun. Looks very well-built and solid. No pics yet, but wondering if there are any comments? 2 3/4" chamber, I'll leave it that way, looks like a modified choke, bead at front and rear, I didn't measure the bbl, but it looks like 16". Only a half-cock for a safety and any lever action guy can live with that.

If it's only 16" you are screwed. Min on a shotgun should be 18"
I have seen some at the shows & felt they wanted too much money for
what they were. They are a neat replica. Does yours have the leather fringe thingy on the lever?

Bruce, turns-out it's 20", coulda fooled me, looks shorter. No rawhide thingys on the lever but I did e-mail Norinco tonite asking about it. The shotgun is as new, but has been taken down and de-burred, very well I might add. There's an original on GB now, 10ga, ouch!!!!!!
I had my trade, which was the Cobray mac11/9 at the same as most want for this gun, I feel I did good. I'm sure it'll sting a tad at first, been a while since I fireed a shotgun, especially one as short and without a pad. Low comb, gonna be tough to get the cheek weld.
