Re: Shockwave or Tac14?

I have both and used them for a bear gun while hiking in AK. they are handy and easy to carry. they both work good. I prefer the 870 cause that's what I am use to and my wife likes the 500 better cause of the tang safety. the 870 was much smoother but after cleaning up the 500 internals & puttin...

10mm is not even close to a 340gr plus p round from buffalo bore. But I can tell you to be seriously efficient with a handgun with that much power you must commit to practicing alot.
