bohound 281 Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Wondering if anybody has any experience with these. This past weekend, to settle an old debt, my husband (instead of demanding the money owed him) accepted this shotgun in lieu: I'll tell you what... I LIKE this thing. It has a chrome lined bore and barrell, a "forward assist" on the pump (rack it back, a spring "autoloads" the next round), and an 8+1 capacity. (I understand that it was imported with 5+1, and was modified). We already have a Mossy 590 military (the old version of the 590A1, with heat shield, speed feed stock, and bayo lug). Thing is, this Turkish shotty seems more solid in the action than the Mossy, has the aforementioned chrome, and is LIGHTER! By all accounts I've read on this gun, it's a solid tool, and Mossberg 500 parts will fit no problem. With that in mind, I think we'll keep it (I'll LET him keep it, and it will be MINE! hehe). I'm thinking I'll put a Knoxx specops stockset on, get it parkerized, and leave it at that. I wanted to know if any other members have any experience with these. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djt1991 1 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I had the one with pistol grip stock and the fore arm had a spring! I sold it and really regret it best pump shotgun I ever had was very sturdy! I've had 500s to 870s and they were both piece of shits compared to the Tristar if you can get one don't hesitat! In my onion best pump shotgun available Quote Link to post Share on other sites
msrdiver 42 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 I shot very high like 2 feet high at 30 yards using the Knoxx stock. Great investment in the recoil reducing stock., I'll need a much taller front sight or an optic to shoot that gun straight, I hope your experience is better, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 The spring assist feature sounds cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dad2142Dad 6,559 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yes got my wife the Cobra force model earlier this year http://www.tristararms.com/cobra-force-pump-notcamo.php The spring assist works great and she really likes it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
