FYI 995 Tip

thrillbilly · 10-25-2009, 03:36 AM

LOL this may be well known...but ya can take a elastic shotgun shell butt carrier, and 2 or 3 HP995 mags will fit in it. Makes a handy addition to the carbine...2 extra mags right at your fingerprints! I used a older one that was stretched slightly...but the mag wedged right in the shell loop nice and snug. Y can only get 3 in it though...not one in each of the 5 loops...I have a mag in each end loop and one in the middle loop.

Mine looks about like this one...just under 6$ at Wal-Mart.

Eh, I buy jeans with pockets, solves that problem.

I don't know, but my 995 isn't a gun I feel the need to have extra mags strapped to. It's a plinker, which means we're usually shooting from a bench, don't need to haul magazines. Now my M1 carbine, well, it's meant to have extra mags on the stock! Wouldn't look right without a pouch! Mine even has a pouch on the sling, rifle and five 15-round magazines in one hand. And, in an emergency, I'd tromple all over my 995 to get to the M1.

But that's a cool idea if a person wanted to do that! Extra mags are always good, sure wouldn't hurt. I just wish they held more rounds and were easier to find.

I keep mine in the trunk of my car...kind of a "Oh Bleep" thing. I wanted something to keep the ammo handy, I don't keep it loaded because of the law...so I wanted to be able to grab it and go without looking for the mags. LOL ya know how messy car trunks can get, I'd be looking for the mags for 5 minutes what with all the purses, umbrellas, tool bag, ice scrapers, and other assorted crap my wife keeps back there! I bought it mainly for that purpose...something to keep in the rig, without being expensive in case it gets stolen.

Dadgum good idea thrillbilly but you should sell them on gunbroker as such the townies would go wild you might make your house payment with them .
