I really enjoy shooting clay pigeons with my converted S410.

Thanks, the conversion was fast as the trigger cutout was already done. Until I actually went out and shot this I always looked down on .410s, being a 12 gauge snob :) ...but the S410 is so smooth and low recoil that it's just really pleasant to shoot. This is a 95 model that only takes 3" shells and it runs great. I'd seriously consider buying a new one with the adjustable gas system when/if they are ever imported again.

Ill never ever knock a .410 again after hunting dove with a state champion skeet shooter back in the late 70s. This guy was in the middle of the field while my friend and I were on one edge with other hunters on the other edges.....he was knocking down birds much closer to me than him that I wouldnt even consider taking a shot at. I was very surprised to find out he was shooting a 410.

I recommend your shotgun is "born in the USA" 922r compliant before dropping this mag in.

I was using this shotgun to blast clay pigeons a few weeks ago and had the rangemaster come running out accusing me of using a rifle. I said, "come on, I'm not that good a shot, this is a .410."

He said, "oh...OK...it looked like a rifle from back over there."

I replied, "yep, clay pigeons don't stand a chance, this bad boy is dead accurate with slugs."

Don't be surprised if you get some funny looks at the trap and skeet club when you pull one of these out.
