12 gage to 410 adapter

[ferreterwithnets 0]

hi

i have herd that you can get a adapter that you can put in to a 12 bore so you can shoot 410 carts

out of it is this true?

If so this will be good as i dont want to pay over £200 for a 410 shotgun when i will only use it now and then for rats and ferrels.

and if you have some what are thay like?

how much is a set?

If you can help that would good thanks

I have herd this, i think their called "converters", saves money but i think that they tend to be less accurate than a proper 410

With all due respect.....why not just buy a cheap .410?

 

My single shot .410 cost me £95 brand new!

 

you can pick up second hand ones for half that or less......

 

and it wouldn't be as cumbersome as a 12gauge with a converter?

 

Here's my little .410.....bought some more cartridges today and am planning a lamping trip after some bunnies this friday with it! i thought about selling this gun....but to be honest i now think everyone should have a .410 in their cabinet besides what ever else they own!

:no:

 

Dont bother mate, whats the point of firing an 18 gram load of shot out of a gun that is designed for 30, and having a bad pattern to go with it? While all the time it is costing you more to buy the shells?

 

Seems like a bit of a non-entity to me. I did consider them myself once, but unless you are talking of the whole inner tubes which fit all the way along a 12 bore barrel, such as those with the Krieghoff K-, you're wasting your time.

 

A set of entire length tubes are going to cost you hundreds, and thats if you can find ones that will fit your gun.

 

A set of the Chamber tubes, which slip into the chamber and enable you to fire the .410 shells, are about £35-40 each and for that, I would buy a Second hand Baikal Single Barrel for £65-70.

 

JMHO.

just buy a 410

myn only cost £1600.00 quid so they are cheap

We use to use then in the allotments shooting rats, the pattern is crap, to be honest thats all they are good for. If your handy with a lathe you could make one yourself,

Mine was when i bought it about 2 or 3 years ago, i think they are about 20quid dearer now, mine has a 26 inch barrel, i dont know if the others have a longer barrel?

 

its a great small gun, in pieces it would fit in a rucksack and is very light and easy to carry/use

Its in Birmingham not far from the train station, i know your in Herts, you could get the train from Watford to Birmingham new street and the gunshop is only a few hundred yards from the train station according to the map! just make sure you took a gunslip with you!

 

My local Gunshop in Bletchley has them at £165 and states synthetic (i presume thats the stock and foreend instead of wood)

 

Or ring round your local shops and ask

 

Have a look on Guntrader there are a fair few second hand 410's of various make,(some in herts) but i do like my Baikal!
