Been eyeballing a few single shot shotguns lately. One of the big box stores has Dickenson shotguns. Anybody know much about them?
I'm looking for a 20 gauge with wood furniture and replaceable choke tubes.
Thanks.

Turkish made im assuming? Can get into a mossberg 500 for 300 bucks and have abetter gun (in my opinion)

A Mossberg 500 for$300?

Yes you can get a mossberg 500 with 3 chokes for 300 bucks.

Thank you. I didn't know that. But I'm looking at single shot shotguns.

I have a batch of QUALITY made 20 gauge single shots I am going to get rid of but none have screw in chokes. We will see if $200 Winchesters sell before this new made Turkish junk.

Yea, the mossberg mavericks can be had for cheaper and are great guns. I hav a stevens (turkish made savage) .243 that shoots great. It was around 350 bucks. Kinda hit or miss on the turkish shotguns.

The Dickinson side by sides have a following with upland guys. Reasonably priced and decent looking guns. I know Dickinson was at least for a while importing Impala Plus semi autos. Mine is newer than that, but i believe its the same thing. I love that gun and it set me back a whopping 350 bucks. I dont know anything about their singles, but the only one I saw on their website was pretty ugly to me.
I have an H and R 3.5 inch 12 gauge single that has a screw in choke. Kicks like a horse. Maybe they or New England made additional guns with removable chokes?

You got me curious so I did some searching. Now I want a H and R Topper deluxe. They use mossberg/winchester choked. Even have a vent rib. Had no clue that was a thing

I had a tristar viper max 3.5" autoloader for years. Very good gun but was upwards of 900 bucks. The cheap raptor i had was junk. The tristar upland o/u was ok but the safety was real finicky.

The last one I saw sell was just over $500.

I don't think anything kicks as hard as a single shot 12 gauge, any brand.... Maybe a 20 gauge is tamer,.... maybe,

I take it you never shot a 10 gauge,

Snowy wins this one…I did once. Once was enough to know I don’t hate anything bad enough to pull that trigger again. Have no make of the model, but a guy brought it to camp for those “high flying snows” and I had to try it out.

Those are SO BAD. 10 gauges, short barrel S&W 500's, and any of the .33 caliber (or bigger) magnums are on my don't/won't shoot list

I ran a full box of 3.5 inch T's through a single shot shooting trap. Shoulder hurt for a week.

I’ve never shot a .500,but I’ve shot a 10 gauge and a .338 win mag quite a bit and I know this… when the trigger gets pulled stuff falls down.

They start a $100. I have no idea what you think you want one for, but for that price you can throw it in the trash if it breaks and get another one. They would be a no for me, but I like shotguns and shooting them.

I have a Browning BPS ion 10 gauge. It surely lets you know when you pull the trigger, but it isn't that bad. I love it for goose hunting.

I would check out Rossi or Stevens in a single shot. Going to set you back less than 300 bucks. Eric
