You’re right!!!!! I searched again and found it! $59 is pretty steep, but considering how cheap the gun is it’s still a good value. Maybe I will pick up another one lol
@@GunsandGuitars Apparently Carlsons makes a 7 and a 8 round tube for the Benelli Super Nova/Beretta 1301 that also fits, potentially less expensive as well.
@GunsandGuitars I actually bought a version of the gforce g3t and I did buy the mag tube extention off their site. Mine did require me dremeling out the lip in order for it to accept the mag tube extention, but it was well worth it. It's now a 7+1 setup. The only down side is the actually pump. I might have to add some grip tape.
I just bought a new Mossberg Maverick 88 here in Anchorage Alaska USA, at one of the local stores and the price was $299, I bought it last week, and I'm very happy with it, it is an excellent shotgun, I love it. Greetings from Anchorage Alaska USA, your friend, Dr. Duarte. MD.
🤔 Your info is not correct. The Maverick 88 is not a clone of the mossberg and it’s not made in Mexico. The mossberg Maverick 88 is a mossberg 500 variant and it’s made in eagle pass, Texas.
And it’s a damn beast! I’ve had one for almost 20 years and it’s never let me down. I’ve put everything in could find through it, High brass, low brass, bird shot, BBs, all kinds of buck, magnums, Turkey, high velocity slugs, it loves everything lol. It’s been dropped, banged up, left under the backseat of my truck with other tools and it’s never been unreliable. I don’t understand why anyone looking for a budget pump shotgun would buy anything else.
I recently purchased an SDS tokarev Hammer 12 gauge pump action shotgun that uses Mossberg stocks and four ends with a bolt system similar to Remington 870. It accepts many Custom features made for Mossberg. I paid $150 for it from Bud's gun shop.
I got a Ted Williams shotgun at a gun shop. They were made for Sears by , I think, Savage. One of the smoothest shotguns I've ever felt. It was about $150. The old Sears shotguns are cheap and great guns. Watch to make sure they work. They are 70 years old or so.
I just came across your channel and subscribed instantly. I've been a guitar gear horder for years, and recently began collecting firearms! It's an amazingly similar addiction. And I'm all about "Bang for the buck" in both cases...
To remove the stock, you take the recoil pad off to reach the bolt. Mine came with a pistol grip option a short and long bolt andthe allen wrench along with three choke tubes.
It's insane how cheap guns are over there... Here in Brazil it's several times pricey than in USA.. And you can't import them...😢 Basically a basic gun is worth a monthly salary... And double it for all the documentation with the government...😢
At least you got your rights to own them back! That sucks about the cost and red tape, but grateful you have the option. Most counties it’s banned entirely.
one day your country will be free again. now if only we could stop the turning of the USA into a non free country. ( got to watch what i say as some out there have problems with the truth being told).
Pulled in for the guitar content, and stayed for the guns! I had no idea shotguns or anything else gun-related could be so affordable! Still waiting for more updates on that .22 project you did a few weeks ago, very intriguing!
I don't think he knows what he's talking about. I went to the sellers site he said he bought the G-Force and it was $200, NOT $$119, NOT $129, NOT $ 139. Good video, bad information.
@@andrewbrosseit8099 Oh yeah, they're sold out. Why wouldn't they be for $119.95? Even if it was $200 now, he said he got it a year ago. But it's not. It is still at the modest price of $119.95... Maybe there's someone else on here that isn't sure what they're talking about?
I have not followed the shotgun market in awhile, but the last shotgun I got was a Hatfield SAS12 for $214.83 in 2018. Pluses: This is a semi-auto; you can extend the mag tube, as-is it's 4+1; 3 choke tubes incl; 28" bbl; gas/inertia operated. Takes some "breaking in".
To take the stock off there is a phillips screw on the front side of the buttpad. It's hidden in. Remove the buttpad and the bolt is inside.I just bought a shotgun with that stock and removed it. The shotgun will take a 870 stock but you have to file down the rib at the end to make it fit flush. There are adapters for the Turkish shot guns that make it fit better, but they are hard to find. They have the magazine extension kit on the GForce arms website.
9:44 - Remove stock by removing rear-facing screw under the shell carrier. Take off pad and use extension to remove stock screw. They sell an 870 stock adapter for $25.
Not sure what they're going for these days, but the Stevens 320 is a pretty good budget shotgun. Have bought one or more just over $200 , but have a couple I got for under $200 ...
Yeah those are excellent guns as well. A clone of the Winchester 1100 I believe. The price tends to hover between $200-300 these days. Still an excellent value for what you get!
I agree. I bought a Stevens 320 tactical with sights, not the bead on the front of the barrel. During the 2020 rush to buy a weapon, I was really looking for a Remington 870. The sporting shops all laughed because there were none to be had. At least not a new one. Gun shops were selling high priced AR and AK variants, but I just wanted a shotgun for home security. (I am a paralyzed veteran and don’t hunt anymore) My mechanic pointed me to the shop where I bought my 320 and put in a good word. So, I got the 320, a decent soft carry case and two boxes of shells for under $200.00 USD. It is a decent shotgun, but I had to upgrade the mag tube follower because it was made of soft plastic and it wore out and was getting sticky in the tube. The new one was a bit longer and very slippery. The original follower would cycle the shells once the tube was loaded. But loading it was an exercise in frustration. They have to cut corners somewhere to make a profit. Backed by Savage Arms, these are a good choice. The 320 ate everything I fed it. From mini shells to 3” magnum slugs. All different brands of shells from Russia, Turkey, Italy and whatever you could get at increased prices. I still have one box of Wolf brand 2 3/4” 00 buck 10 rounds for $40.00. Around 2022 ammo was cheaper and more plentiful.
The closest thing to "value" in a semiauto shotgun you can trust your life with as well as running shells other than double .00 or slugs reliably well are the Beretta A300 and Mossberg 940. The Turkish semi's are all over the place quality wise. Watch James Reeves shotgun burndown videos on TFBTV. They're fun to watch but also quite eye opening.
I have a Maverick 88 and I found a kit on amazon that allows you to put picatinny rail on top. It also has a 5 or 6 shot (I dont remember without the gun in front of me) holder on the non shell ejection side. The kit fit perfectly and only took me about 5 minutes to fit to the gun. I wish I could post a picture because it looks awesome. Also the red dot is helpful for shooting clays. Thanks for the content!
@@bjellison905 I have about 100 rounds of bird shot through it from shooting clays. Admittedly that's not a heavy load, so it's not receiving as much impact as if I were shooting buckshot or slugs. So it hasn't seen heavy use yet since then. Time will tell.
Well since you asked yes I do know of another budget 12 gauge Turkish shotgun under 200 that should be on the list.. Which is the Ermox XPRO B-12. I just bought one and it's phenomenal.
My 88 has a 500 tactical grip and adjustable stock, rail mounted on the top, rear sights from a crossbow, front optics I drilled to snap onto the factory nib sight, and a 17 dollar barrel heat shield that is badass! And strap mounts. Grand total cost- 285.00
I have a h@r pump protector got it a few year back for 148 new put a black hawk adjustable stock on it mounted a light and the thing still runs today have traded off many guns over the yeras but have always kept this one it is my home defense gun love it
I think I might get this for my first shotty. Love the folding stock. But for the price it's hard to imagine it being super reliable for home defense. Would you trust it as much as other shotguns for reliability?
Look into the blue line solutions bl18! It’s a clone of a 590 (iirc) and everything but the barrel is interchangeable. I got mine for $150 early this year and have since put just about 1000 rounds through it. Honestly came out of the box with a smoother action than my maverick 88 lol. Going to order another one beginning of next year for a new build
Love a good shotgun video, thanks! Seriously considering the Mav 88 since it's in stock at my local Sportsmans, currently for $230, which is still a killer price for a Mossberg! But I do see that Gforce is on sale right now for $99.95 on J&G! That's nuts
If your going to get the Maverick 88 get the security combo, I just bought 1 at sportsmans for $260. You get a 18.5 barrel for self defense and a 28 inch barrel for hunting.
Bluline pump PD 18 is the same as your pardner. A hawk 981 under another name. 200 on classic. Palm sells stevens 320 for about 150 and tfb tv did a 500 rd burndown on it and the MAV.
@@GunsandGuitarsthat’s weird cause I have a Mossberg 500 18.5” barrel that I put on my Maverick as well as a 500 Turkey barrel I use on my Maverick as well.
I have owned several Chinese made firearms, and they are pretty good. The SKS is a great rifle as well as some of the Norinco knock offs of the 1911's.
I remember many years ago, I had the option to buy a Remington 870 or a Mossberg 590 for $300 as my first shotgun and I chose the Remington… I still kick myself to this day
i agree about wanting at least 6 shots for home defense. best part about a shotgun is being able to make your own shot. in my home at night, the shotgun will always be my first choice. P.S with LEAD shot.. lol
Hey look, the guy that showed me how to finish my DIY guitar is also giving me information on my new hobby, firearms. You should name your channel something like... oh... I get it now.

Also saw Family ride Honda CB250, Yamaha RX135.... awesome motorcycles for India. Now I me some of that, Maybe .32ACP revolver & a .22 pistol and a 410 shotgun. I love em Paf PRO pickups Awesome Stuffm
What do you think of the Hatfield 12 gauge auto loader shotgun my wife is very adamant about getting one and she's set her eyes on this she's 5'4" an the shotgun is almost as tall as her. Well she bought it and even though it's as big as her she handles it very well I was very impressed. But I should have expected that since we are both MIDWEST born and raised. And she grew up on a farm and she loves her knew shotgun but I've never heard of Hatfield FIREARMS before.
I had a maverick 88 I could put that barrel on my mossberg 500 but the mossberg barrel wouldn't fit the maverick bc it has a breather. I believe you can interchange the barrels between the 2 I know for a fact you can bc I would use the long barrel on my 500 when bird hunting.
Wow really? Thanks for clarifying, I was under the impression that they were not interchangeable. I guess I should have fact checked myself first, I hate giving out misinformation.
@@GunsandGuitars no problem I happen to have bought a 88 security model (7+1) and swapped it to the a 500 security\field combo (5+1) . It's been a few years and they both work fantastic the only thing is you have to swap the magazine tube for the obvious size difference.
You're incorrect about the Maverick 88 sir some of the parts that are made in Mexico but not all and the barrels are interchangeable but it depends on the length of the magazine tube you have on your firearm with the barrel you're willing to swap it from. In other words if you have a 8 shot Maverick the barrel will swap to an eight shot Mossberg and if you have a five-shot Mossberg the barrel will swap to a five shot Maverick
I picked up a basically no name 12ga made in Turkey , in early 2021 for $135.. I put another $150-175 into it, light, shell holder , ect... And it runs just as nice as my Mossberg , and it's just as reliable.. Also picked up a 20ga pump , no name out of China for $120.. It's the first and only 20ga I've ever owned or fired.. So I don't have anything to compare it to, but damn if it's not one of the best built and reliable shotguns I own.. My wife claimed it as hers.. And she's ran it and trained with it now for a little over a year. She loves the hell out of it , and i have to say that I'm kinda liking it myself.. But I'll stay with my 12's.. Point is , if you do a little asking at your local shop , they might just have something really sweet and for a little bit of nothing laying around in the back. 👍
Started out with cheap budget guns and thought they were great. They run for awhile, they hit the targets with decent accuracy and they look ok. Then I got ahold of top shelf firearms like Korth, Sigs, Binellis and Custom rigs. The difference is notable and significant. Mastering bottom shelf guns allows you to easily handle the best firearms available. My PSA is a good AR but my Daniel Defense ddm4 V7 is superior in every way. My Extar ep9 pcc is great but my Sig Rattler is a masterful creation. The differences are vast. The sub 200$ Dickinsons are absolute garbage. The sun $200 shotguns of any sort are not good. But I do carry G2 and GX4 in my rotation and they were sub $300 and my G2 has ten thousand rounds through it easily and still runs like a champ. The Maverick is ok but step up to the 500. The Mav is a 200 series. I’ve built a 500 persuader 7+1 and added an Archangel tactical grip and adjustable stock, aluminum follower, aluminum safety and a receiver shroud / warhammer heat shield. Turning this $250 shotgun into a $650 battle ready monster.
I used to own a Mossberg Maverick and as far as I'm concerned it is as good a shotgun as any $500 gun. It never failed to shoot or recycle. Just a all around good gun..
That would be fun! I think there’s more than a few under $300, and maybe even a couple under $200 but I don’t have experience with them yet. I’ll see if I can get my hands on some
Question?.. Is there a special accessory item that you had to purchase to shoot the mini 12ga rounds that fits inside the chamber???? Or do the guns just accept and cycle the mini rounds out of the box?? I'm kind of confused??? Also, could you do a complete detailed breakdown video on these guns to show a person new to the purchased one of these a how to video??
Nothing special needed to shoot the mini shells, they are designed to work in most tube fed pump shotguns (that’s why they were developed, to add capacity). Not all pump shotguns work well with them, these 3 in the video certainly do though.
A company called OpSol has a thing called mini clip and it's for your mini shells if you have a maverick 88 or mossberg you want to buy the mini clip, easy to install and take off
It was probably still in his shop because it had a LONG barrel and we remember why Ruby Ridge happened. Modifying a gun The Maverick 88 is made in Maverick Texas. Not Mexico. Close but not.
Most of these shotguns made in Turkey are made in the same factory and imported under countless different banners. It took me years to find parts and accessories for my Dickinson shotguns. Turns out G Force Armory sells the parts and they're pretty cheap.
I wish I had 500$ to spend on a Remington 870 or the mossberg 500. I'm of the same mindset buy low , buy more ammo and range time. But seeing the mossberg 88 security is 250$ and takes the m500 modifications. Yeah way better investment
Gforce does offer an mag tube extension for the GF2P.
I’ve looked everywhere for it. It even says on their website faqs that they don’t make one. Where can I find one?

Stevens 320 security pump is the same price as the 88 and gets you a pic rail, heat shield, and pistol grip in a super reliable shotgun.

And remember the Opsol block for running the 1 1/2" shells. Capacity increases to 11 or 12, less recoil and less chance to overpenetrate. Shoot safe.
Bluline pump PD 18 is the same as your pardner. A hawk 981 under another name. 200 on classic. Palm sells stevens 320 for about 150 and tfb tv did a 500 rd burndown on it and the MAV.
Barrels for the Maverick are absolutely interchangeable as long as the magazines are the same lengths
Sorry I didn’t specify, they aren’t interchangeable with *mossberg 500 barrels
@@GunsandGuitarsthat’s weird cause I have a Mossberg 500 18.5” barrel that I put on my Maverick as well as a 500 Turkey barrel I use on my Maverick as well.
The fore ends aren't interchangeable but the barrels are
Bro they are interchangeable@@GunsandGuitars
I just bought the gforce but mine is army green n black n got it for $150 n it's awesome
You didn't add in your description where to buy this shotgun for $120.
I got the maverick pistol grip. Best bang for the buck just my opinion
The Maverick is made in Eagle Pass Texas. In Maverick County Texas.
I have owned several Chinese made firearms, and they are pretty good. The SKS is a great rifle as well as some of the Norinco knock offs of the 1911's.
You forgot about the Canuck linr from Turkey. I am still impressed with my Regulator to this day. It was $200 CAD back in 2018.
I didn't know the shirt shells worked in the Maverick. Had a pawn shop say it didn't.
Love my mosburg 500!
I remember many years ago, I had the option to buy a Remington 870 or a Mossberg 590 for $300 as my first shotgun and I chose the Remington… I still kick myself to this day
i agree about wanting at least 6 shots for home defense. best part about a shotgun is being able to make your own shot. in my home at night, the shotgun will always be my first choice. P.S with LEAD shot.. lol
My local Northern Virginia gun store has the Gforce for $268 (with extended magazine) and the Maverick for $286.
I just bought the G Force on PSA for $109. THe new version has pic rail on the bottom front of the pump for a light
Maverick 88 is a infamously famous shotgun for how reliable it is as a shotgun for the price!
It’s basically a even more affordable mossberg 500
J&G sales are going to run out of these because of you!
What part of Arizona are you from? Been shopping at J & G Sales since the 80s👍🏻!!
Great video !
Steve.
Hey look, the guy that showed me how to finish my DIY guitar is also giving me information on my new hobby, firearms. You should name your channel something like... oh... I get it now.
Great video. Will the less lethal byrna shotgun shells work with the maverick 88?
My buddy has a gforce. first time at the range the front sight launched itself into oblivion. It ran okay but definitely get what you pay for quality
Savage Stevens 320. It's a Winchester 1300 clone at $175-$200. Great shotgun. How about doing one on semi autos?
Do they make a 410?
@@dorifergan58 I don't think so. I believe they do make a 20 gauge though.
Poor machining, rough action and unreliable
@@klj2382 Doesn't sound like mine. Sorry yours is so rough.
Guns and Guitars!! Best damn click bait channel name I ever heard!! Subed!
Great looking gun for that price point
Wow, Guns and Guitar. You Sir is living my dream life. I adore both stuff, also like motorcycles I rode as a child. I have few guitars, had a .22 rifle and a double barrel shotgun at home. Also saw Family ride Honda CB250, Yamaha RX135.... awesome motorcycles for India. Now I me some of that, Maybe .32ACP revolver & a .22 pistol and a 410 shotgun. I love em Paf PRO pickups Awesome Stuffm
Not shotguns but there are quite a few .22lr guns that are less than $119. Heritage makes a lot of them.
The H&R was built in the Norinco Factory in China where they literally build tanks it's basically a tank in shotgun form.
Yep. People should def not underrate stuff that comes from the norinco factory. They make everything
The Norinco 1911 was one of the best. They were used as the base for a lot of custom guns. And the 97 Winchester clone was nice.
I got a HATSAN SLUGGER ESCORT , have not shot it yet .
Same here! Got it to shoot dragons breath and dragon slugs! LOL
I own an H&R pump works like a dream . I put a Black ops adjustable stock.
The Maverick 88 does allow barrel swaps.
Take the stock pad off the force and that’s how you take the stock off, also there is a spacer in the tube take it out mine fits 6+1
Right know the gforce gf2 is on sale for the 4th of July for only 109 like wow going to order one
Nice guns, bro. Im had one like that, but from Turkie. With love from Ukraine to US,🇺🇦🤝🇺🇲
PSA has that G-force for $99. I got 2 and they are a way better quality than you would think for the price.
I agree! You should watch my latest video where I add some cool mods to mine!
Hey, Thank you for this video. I am planning to get a shotgun so I needed the info.
What do you think of the Hatfield 12 gauge auto loader shotgun my wife is very adamant about getting one and she's set her eyes on this she's 5'4" an the shotgun is almost as tall as her. Well she bought it and even though it's as big as her she handles it very well I was very impressed. But I should have expected that since we are both MIDWEST born and raised. And she grew up on a farm and she loves her knew shotgun but I've never heard of Hatfield FIREARMS before.
I had a maverick 88 I could put that barrel on my mossberg 500 but the mossberg barrel wouldn't fit the maverick bc it has a breather. I believe you can interchange the barrels between the 2 I know for a fact you can bc I would use the long barrel on my 500 when bird hunting.
Just to clarify Maverick 88 and 500 do share barrels, I've swapped multiple barrels and magazine tubes from each other
Wow really? Thanks for clarifying, I was under the impression that they were not interchangeable. I guess I should have fact checked myself first, I hate giving out misinformation.
@@GunsandGuitars no problem I happen to have bought a 88 security model (7+1) and swapped it to the a 500 security\field combo (5+1) . It's been a few years and they both work fantastic the only thing is you have to swap the magazine tube for the obvious size difference.
You're incorrect about the Maverick 88 sir some of the parts that are made in Mexico but not all and the barrels are interchangeable but it depends on the length of the magazine tube you have on your firearm with the barrel you're willing to swap it from. In other words if you have a 8 shot Maverick the barrel will swap to an eight shot Mossberg and if you have a five-shot Mossberg the barrel will swap to a five shot Maverick
I don’t see this maverick 88 on J and G sales at all… let alone the price you quoted.
+1 for the Mav 88 !
My personal opinion and choice of firearm is the shotgun
I picked up a basically no name 12ga made in Turkey , in early 2021 for $135.. I put another $150-175 into it, light, shell holder , ect... And it runs just as nice as my Mossberg , and it's just as reliable.. Also picked up a 20ga pump , no name out of China for $120.. It's the first and only 20ga I've ever owned or fired.. So I don't have anything to compare it to, but damn if it's not one of the best built and reliable shotguns I own.. My wife claimed it as hers.. And she's ran it and trained with it now for a little over a year. She loves the hell out of it , and i have to say that I'm kinda liking it myself.. But I'll stay with my 12's.. Point is , if you do a little asking at your local shop , they might just have something really sweet and for a little bit of nothing laying around in the back. 👍
Started out with cheap budget guns and thought they were great. They run for awhile, they hit the targets with decent accuracy and they look ok.
Then I got ahold of top shelf firearms like Korth, Sigs, Binellis and Custom rigs.
The difference is notable and significant.
Mastering bottom shelf guns allows you to easily handle the best firearms available.
My PSA is a good AR but my Daniel Defense ddm4 V7 is superior in every way.
My Extar ep9 pcc is great but my Sig Rattler is a masterful creation.
The differences are vast.
The sub 200$ Dickinsons are absolute garbage. The sun $200 shotguns of any sort are not good.
But I do carry G2 and GX4 in my rotation and they were sub $300 and my G2 has ten thousand rounds through it easily and still runs like a champ.
The Maverick is ok but step up to the 500. The Mav is a 200 series. I’ve built a 500 persuader 7+1 and added an Archangel tactical grip and adjustable stock, aluminum follower, aluminum safety and a receiver shroud / warhammer heat shield. Turning this $250 shotgun into a $650 battle ready monster.
Fantastic video, as usual. I like gun's & I like guitar's. Rock On! ☝️
I paid $190 for a heavily used
Mossberg 590 8+1 ghost ring sights and bayonet lug. Still beats these out of the water
190 dollars wut
I used to own a Mossberg Maverick and as far as I'm concerned it is as good a shotgun as any $500 gun.
It never failed to shoot or recycle.
Just a all around good gun..
Best auto loader for the money next? Currently running the baikal mp155 and it now cycles low brass.
That would be fun! I think there’s more than a few under $300, and maybe even a couple under $200 but I don’t have experience with them yet. I’ll see if I can get my hands on some
Just a note, but your timestamp for the H&R Partner Pump says HK Partner Pump.
Question?.. Is there a special accessory item that you had to purchase to shoot the mini 12ga rounds that fits inside the chamber???? Or do the guns just accept and cycle the mini rounds out of the box?? I'm kind of confused??? Also, could you do a complete detailed breakdown video on these guns to show a person new to the purchased one of these a how to video??
Nothing special needed to shoot the mini shells, they are designed to work in most tube fed pump shotguns (that’s why they were developed, to add capacity). Not all pump shotguns work well with them, these 3 in the video certainly do though.
A company called OpSol has a thing called mini clip and it's for your mini shells if you have a maverick 88 or mossberg you want to buy the mini clip, easy to install and take off
The maverick 88 isn’t made in Mexico ; a few parts are but the fun is actually made in Eagle Pass Texas. That’s in the USA
i love guns and guitar how did i just find this channel
Guns and Guitars 🎸 💪
This is an amazing channel ❤
The gforce gf2p. I would definitely get Sara-coated in the sand tan color
1:51 That guy is extremely smart. The internet can be a Stupid and Frustrating place. Real Life is 1000 times better.
He’s one of my favorite people. And reliable as hell.
It was probably still in his shop because it had a LONG barrel and we remember why Ruby Ridge happened.
Modifying a gun
The Maverick 88 is made in Maverick Texas. Not Mexico. Close but not.
Most of these shotguns made in Turkey are made in the same factory and imported under countless different banners. It took me years to find parts and accessories for my Dickinson shotguns. Turns out G Force Armory sells the parts and they're pretty cheap.
Nice one Dan!
I own a gforce arms gf3t and I love it. I got mine for $140
I wish I had 500$ to spend on a Remington 870 or the mossberg 500. I'm of the same mindset buy low , buy more ammo and range time. But seeing the mossberg 88 security is 250$ and takes the m500 modifications. Yeah way better investment
Great video. What was the mount and optic you used on your Gforce?
Following! Id like to know as well
Awesome video, shotguns might be the most underrated tactical firearms out there
