They're funky looking. Almost a futuristic vibe.

Looks like most shottys are wood stocked and I was hoping for a composite one as it'll be mainly for field work. Not many plain black ones besides the Akkar synthetic.
Either that or get over the fact that all that pretty scrollwork and wood will one day get banged up despite my best efforts.
Look for a hatsan escort silver synthetic.

Who needs 2 when I've got the Chiappa X-Caliber 12g / 22LR all in one combo.

And it came with these...

All up it's good for 2¾” - 3” 12ga/22LR, 380, 9mm, 357mag / 38sp, 40S&W, 44mag, 45acp, 410/45colt, 20ga and can also double as a canoe paddle due to the polypropylene foam stock.
Probably one of the better "Prepper" combos legally available in NSW and it shoots surprisingly well considering with a red dot scope mounted.

You could fill it full of foam, that should take that hollow plastic type sound out of it (I know what you mean though they feel toy like (can't stand plastic crap in rifles) I'm a wood man through and through, altho if it was a decent synthetic stock I could live with it but 99% of the rifles that come with synthetic stocks are crap IMO.

Can't down many pests all in one go if too busy hand loading ammoz into the firearm. first shot spooks them and then they run away as fast as they can...doesn't that suck? they want us to hunt ferals/pests but they want to make us as inefficient as possible while doing it lol

What a joke.
Rename an introduced predator to sound native and the problem goes away apparently...
