This video is tailored for those individuals who are thinking of getting a break action smooth bore. These simple guns can be sophisticated! Know the difference before you buy!
Howdy Marc- great information on the break downs. Won’t be long and you’ll be out there using them. Take care and God bless
Yes your right! I have been carrying for a bit already!
Thanks for coming out Paul✌️
A break action single shot was my first gun. I was working at a factory and was talking to a coworker about guns, something we have a shared interest in and the conversation eventually moved to my desire to buy my first gun, ideally cheap. He agreed to sell me a Taurus break action single shot 12 gauge for $120. He was very generous and included the scope he had on it, a nice sling, and a hard gun case to store it in as well as a ziploc full of federal 12 gauge sabot slugs. I love it, its a slug gun with a rifled barrel with no choke, firing shot out of it will be wildly inaccurate but sabot slugs are extremely accurate out to a good 100 yards (probably even more but I'm not that good of a shot lol). Modern black polymer furniture with a picatinny rail on top which is really nice, he included the scope but the rail means I could fit a red dot if I wanted. It's got an external hammer, a manual switch safety, and ejects upon opening. I still have it and will never get rid of it. Its perfect for hunting, home defense, and just fun at the range. While I'm not that great of a shot, I've gotten quite proficient at reloading it quickly, the ejector really helps speed it up.
Thats a great story, perhaps your friend wanted to inspire you. Either way sounds like you landed a winning combo and its great you're enjoying it for what it is👍
Thanks for coming out and sharing✌️
I need one of these. Thank you for the overview of single barrels, Marc. Stay safe and stay cool
Everyone needs these guns👍
Thanks Sean, take care ✌️
Lots of particulars I had not even thought about. Very informative Marc
My aim was to point it out as I get questions every year about them!
Thanks for watching John✌️
Great video! I love my double barrel 20 gauge over-under. Perfect for upland birds and deer within 50 yards.
Those over under just have that look don't they! Got to love em! 20 is a nice overall load too!
Thanks Polaris✌️
Nice overview. We have a couple of break action .410s.
Handy little gun to keep around, and shells can be bought anywhere👍
Take care John✌️
Thanks for sharing! I use a break action gor grouse. Heading north next weekend. Can't wait!
They sure make the best grouse gun don't they! Hey maybe we will run into each other out there 👍
Thanks for coming out ✌️
@@OpenAirOutdoors we are staying right in shining tree so we run the roads and trails in that area. Good luck next week!
Nicely presented Marc. Prices are a lot different than years back . I bought a 410 single shot cooey at CT 40 years ago $60 :) them days are gone . I don't hunt anymore so I'm getting rid of most of my guns and crossbow stuff in the future . By browning semi 30:06 today new is about 4 times the price I bought new so interesting enough guns do hold their value much better than most things we buy and that's an interest topic between gun owners or those thinking of new vs used. Cheers 👍
You know if I knew back in the day how guns go up in value I would bought a shit load of them to sell off for retirement! Do you want to double your money on the Cooey?😆
Take care Steve🍻
Hey Marc - what guy doesn’t appreciate a good gun review? That Russian shot gun does indeed look to be beautifully crafted… when you have time. Upland game opens this week for me and will definitely hit the bush next weekend. Great video brother, always good to reacquaint oneself with your gun before heading out. Appreciate it and thank you, Ed
Thats awesome! Get out there and get it done👍
Thanks for hanging out Ed✌️
Hi Marc. I like single shot shotguns. Changeable chokes are okay. But doesn't matter to me one way or the other. I have both. Good information buddy. Take care.
I was never big on changing up chokes either! But given the choice I lean to full choke.
Thanks Tracy✌️
@@OpenAirOutdoors , me to Marc.
Hi Marc, good information here. As kids, we learned firearm safety and went hunting with our dad, an excellent woodsman. Later, I would read just about anything to do with hunting and firearms and I have a well-rounded knowledge of their use and function. You present some good information here for someone who is in the market for a new purchase. My dad preferred the .410 shotgun for partridge and used skill in approaching them instead of long-range shots. later, as an adult, I moved up to using a 20 gauge single-shot for partridge and found it a very good choice with a lot better range and minimal damage to the bird if used right. I went hunting with a friend from work a few times who used a 12 guage for partridge (that I thought was overkill) but he had skill in aiming that produced low damage to the meat and extra-long range on birds. I still preferred my 20 gauge. Writing this reminded me of a favorite gun of my dad's that was stolen off the doorstep of our shed many years ago. It was a foldable .410, single shot that stored in a canvas carrying case when folded. I forget the brand, but it was in absolutely mint condition despite many decades of use. We left for a day hunting trip and didn't realize that the gun was forgotten at home until a partridge presented itself on the road ahead and the gun could not be found in the vehicle. We went straight home after realizing the gun may have been left on the step only to discover it gone! We lived in the country and there was a well-travelled gravel road near the house leading into hunting land...some thief passed by in the hour or so that we were gone and made off with that prized gun.
That is a disheartening story! It just makes it worst when its a prized possession! The 20 is a great choice for grouse👍 With a proper aim and the right ammo the 12 is excellent as well. My absolute favourite choice, and I have used them all! Is the 28 when it comes to grouse. I believe it is a widely under rated. It just has that perfect balance of power for both range and thick underbrush.
Thanks for coming out Craig 🍻
@@OpenAirOutdoors That's not the only disappointing story I have...About 30 years ago, while my wife and I were both at work, we had a break-in and they cleaned us out of all our outdoor gear, jewelery and electronics, including several fine rifles and shotguns. They took a 308, a Remington Model 7 chambered in 7mm-08 and a prized .300 savage lever action with the brass rotary magazine, plus a winchester Defender, a remington pump-action 12 gauge, and several single shot guns including my 20 guage. We had insurance but the replacement policy was for us to buy the replacement item first then wait for the insurance company to reinburse us, so as it worked out, many didn't get replaced. One thing I learned from this experience is to never have large kit bags and duffle bags just laying around your house, because that's what the thieves used to transport all our stuff out of the house. We used to have several large ski-type kitbags and large army kitbags that we never thought about, but that's what they used to walk down the street un-noticed with all our stuff. So the lesson is: have insurance, lock up your stuff in safes (especially guns) and never leave large kitbags out in the open inside your house--they make stealing your stuff that much easier.
@@EverydayProjects Craig that is some good tips given! Those bags allowed the opportunity for those thieves!
@@OpenAirOutdoors We now keep all kitbags stored away, out of plain sight, usually in a tote in the attic (DARN!!) now I told you where they are...Be safe, Marc and have fun!
Red letter 12 g 3 inch shells she holds one shot Winchester model 37 32 inch barrel made in the 1940s.... She true and clean and put lots of food on grand pops table..... and his 1950s bolt action 3 shot bolt action Stevens model 58 . Nice and real clean . And his last is a Browning Auto 5 made in the 40s
Tried tested and proven👍
‘Shoot’ me a message 😂 interesting information Marc! Looks like you may need another shotgun 😂. Thanks Brother! 👍🏻👊🏻🍻
Hey I was thinking the same! Maybe there is one out there I would like🤣
Thanks Doug🍻
Hey man, thanks for uploading this, very useful and to the point. I appreciate it. I have one question for you. What shotgun is at 7:22? I’d like to get one that gives me the option to either have it eject the shell or allow me to extract it.
You are very welcome my friend! The gun you're refering to is a Baikal. It is Russian made and unfortunatly to my knowledge right now you'll have to search the used market for Baikal firearms.
Mine has a exposed hammer and crossbar safety on it.
Interesting combination! Does it have a floating firing pin?
One of the guns on the table is folded in half. Does this style do that every time a shot is loaded when you break it? I like them to only open a little to eject the shell, not fold in half. Thanks 🙏
Yes it does! This design is not typical . The great majority of them only open part way.
Thanks for tuning in✌️
Is there any differnce in break action and hing action?
Not what so ever, just different terminology.
Thanks for watching✌️
what model is that older single shot?
Its a Coey model 84
Thanks for checking in✌️
@@OpenAirOutdoors thanks! i love old single shots
Where can you get parts for the Russian single shot shotgun ?
I have never had to buy parts for one, however I would contact my local gunsmith first! I wouldn't even bother with the internet before talking to a reputable gunsmith.
Thanks for watching✌️
