 :chuckle: I figured since you were an outdoor writer I wouldn't be the first jerkwad to call you a whore :chuckle:

Im sure you can't divulge much at the moment... but do you think this newest offering will be a step up from mossberg's silver reserve and onyx series? I wasn't too impressed with the clunkers they were churning out.

Not much to divulge and I wouldn't to you, anyway.  I don't trade words with jerkwads who call me a whore

I find that offensive.


Now, just toss $50 on the dresser and we can be friends again

sorry Dave, never meant to offend you, it was really some light hearted ribbing. I know a couple outdoor writers that openly admit and joke about their whorish ways, I guess you guys are in different leagues. my bad for assuming otherwise.

does your dresser accept pay pal?

I'm surprised how many new o/u models keep coming out.  You would think the market is glutted with them by now.

oh it is, now the niche they are trying to fill is the "affordable" (reads cheap)  gun every day joe's can buy, some of these guns are almost disposable they are put together so poorly.
gun manufacturers found out if you can slap two heavy barrels on top of each other and find a good stout chunk of 2x4 for the stock and then raise the price point up to around $500 ( if it costs more it must be better) for these guns people will be standing in line for them like government cheese. IMO the mossberg silver reserve is a prime example.

there are some O/U's that are tremendous value at around $500 - even less, but the mossbergs are not one of them. also for a gun company that boasts about being made in america I don't know why they stooped to getting these O/U and SxS's made in russia and now Turkey...I would run from a mossberg O/U like my balls were on fire.

I started putting out trail cams on  one of my leases last week-end and saw LOTS of both Blues and Ruffs. Looks like a good year!!
