Ahhhhh, their lose.
Just got back in from picking up our latest acquisition from my Brother......a Mossburg 88, 12 ga., pump. Talk about Rip Van Winkle and awaking to a strange new world......Last I knew, Mossburgs were entry level economy swill. Back when I started hunting in the early 70's, picked one up at the local hardware store, a model 500. Maybe a buck n a half. NOW there not only passed off as a top quality gun, they're held up as the 'gold standard'.....REALLY PEOPLE?
Any way, this new model 88 looks to be for all the world a 'cheaped down' version of the 500.....plastic stock and forearm rather than the really chincy wood the 500 had I seem to recall. BUT in this strange day and age, my Boy now has the 'pump gun' He has been wanting. So all is groovy.
