You've been misinformed. But as you're new to the game that's understandable. :lol:

Hmmm, might have to advise Hilton's it wrong on their website
Funny how you had that to hand DL.... tongueout

They're only calling it a Fabarm in the hope that it will encourage a sale! But more to the point it's been converted to section 2! Why? Why? Why?

I quite like that - it looks simple and practicle...are they reliable ?

...would it not do for skipping around shooting at plates ? razz

I was being semi serious (not just PSGer baiting razz )- It looks ideal for quick target acquisition - I don't know the PSG rules, but is there a 'non semi-auto' class? Would it hold enough shells? Are they known to be unreliable?...

...for less than an hundred quid, would it not make a good entry level gun for PSG?

If I had a slot I'd get it just to see the faces of the benelli/Beretta boys :-)

I don't read my own signature!

Yes, the divisions for IPSC PSG are Standard (semi-autos with minimal alterations), Standard Manual (pump/lever actions with minimal alterations), Modified (Semi/pump/lever with some alterations - ported barrels etc) and Open (anything goes).

9+1 is the minimum magazine capacity required to be competitive.

Pumps are ALWAYS reliable right?? (Not in my experience!! razz )

Would that be the 'Sorry-you-came-last-because-you-kept-missing-low' face? :lol:

I've NO ideal why you'd want to do this to a shotgun unless you were only going to use it for slug, and even then its still ALWAYS better to have your eye as close to the bore axis as possible

Hell no, I wouldn't SHOOT it!!! I'm not sure airfix glue would stand up to a 12G

I'm set on the idea of getting a cheap S1 pump and fixing her up... hmm...

Hilton are wanting £175!!!
Holts seem much more reasonable
