You guy's sure did a great job on that one....Thanks again! Now here's another. My Grandson just bought an NEF 20Ga. to hunt his first year of big game (deer), and I would like to get a sling installed on it. There is no front swivel mount and I was wondering if there is a device I could get that would clamp on the barrel?? Appreciate you advice or ideas....gotta keep the young ones interested. Smoker

Smoker-

Check Brownell's ( www.brownells.com ) or maybe Numrich's ( www.gunparts.com ) for a barrel band sling swivel attachment. I know I have one on a Rem M760 rifle, so chances are they make one for shotguns as well...

While I've never had an NEF or looked at one close, is there a reason that you can't use a screw-in front stud in the forend? You can pick up a set of Uncle Mike's at your local gun shop (or Wal-Mart for that matter). If not in the bottom of the wood, how about on the front end, below the barrel? Just a thought...

Not according to all the guys who shoot the top barrel first in trap doubles, where recoil recovery is critical. I've never seen a scientific study of it though. In addition, most trap and similar games have much higher combs than field or sporting clays guns so it might be true for them and not true for SC. At any rate, there is NO doubt that it makes for a much faster third shot in the field.

Thanks Cold Bore, I didn't find any help on either site but sure apprecaite you effort. When I was a kid we used to use a piece of cloths line . Smoker
