Since they are not producing the the 1300 any more and I picked it up 4 years ago on sale for $105 at Sports Authority.

Its completely bone stock and been to the desert on search and destroy missions on several occation in that form.

Its time I put up any accessories before they discontinue producing them also.

So what to get?

BTW - this is a home defense/swat type of scatter gun :laugh:

negative ghost rider - the pattern is full

3 years ago i would have - but since its no longer in production i want to keep it, i have no idea why.

they will still make shit for a long while for them. There is enough 1200/1300 out there to ensure business for a while. I expect someone will end up buying winchester since FN's lease on the rights is up in a few years and Olin( who owns the trademark and makes the win ammo) will probably try to resuce Winchesters reputation and bring it back somehow either buy selling teh trademark or setting up manufacture again.

Id rather see Ithaca pump out shottys again.

Yeah... My first shotgun ever was an ithica 12 guage featherlight. Great field gun, easy to carry, kicked like a mule

How about someone photochop Janq's (I think) 10 million power spot light to the side of it. Eat that, Surefire!

How about an advanced tech stock with pistol grip forarm and a barrel shroud with ghost rings.

Thats who I got my stuff from

to change my old boring Remington 870 into a mean looking weapon that any winey librial could proudly call a "street sweeper" (TOP)

Same with that mossberg 500C cruser there under it, the stock pistol grip hurts like hell when you fire it so I added the forward pistol grip.

Also note the "SO CALLED" SKS bore cleaner in the top center of the picture near the cell phone charger and the cat fud...no... not that, yea they rope... how is this clean your barrel?!?!

i was looking at the heat shield with ghost rings - for those that have them - how do you like them?

i was deffinately going to add ghost rings - but i was a little concerned with the ATI Heat Shield Ghost Ring set up - it looks kinda cheap
