I did a thing….no, two things…

[The Annoyed Man]

I upgraded the buttstock on my SCAR 17 to an ACR-type, and I ditched the OEM Choate pistol grip stock on my 930 SPX shotgun for a standard Mossberg stock. Both are considerable improvements. The ACR stock is more robust and more slim than the OEM SCAR stock, although it weighs a tiny bit more. The Mossberg stock sacrifices the pistol grip (which did make the snotty a little bit more ergonomic when shooting…like an AR-15), but it made accessing the safety more difficult, it snagged on everything when handling the weapon, and made storage a little more difficult.

Very nice TAM. I agree with you slimming both guns down as far as stocks was a good move. I have done the same on a couple of shotguns and like them without those in the way pistol grips.

Looks great!

I've just never been a fan of shotgun pistol grips. Those look great.

I thought I would be a pistol grip fan when I first bought the shotgun years ago. After all, I own a number of rifles that have pistol grips, and I like those just fine. But over time, the pistol grip on the shotgun just got in the way, and I agree that it looks better without one.
