    Mossberg 183K ??

    I have several old Mossbergs, among them a 183KE. I love the little guy!! I do not hunt, but living on a farm firearms are essential tools. Parts for old Mossbergs are often hard to find. Good luck in your search.

    Pictures of my Dad in Vietnam.

    I spent a year in Quang Tri Province, that's the northernmost. My Army infantry brigade came under command and control of the 3rd Marine Division, and we operated with them along the DMZ.

    Where is the love for the old Model 183

    My first shotgun, bought for $15 when I was in the 9th grade 50 years ago was a Mossberg 12 ga bolt action. Unfortunately it's long gone. I'm a big fan of old Mossberg bolt shotguns and 22 rifles, but as more people discover how neat they are prices are rising. At the moment, besides the .410 I...

    Where is the love for the old Model 183

    I've got a 183KE with C-Lect Choke. She's a sweetheart. I traded an Ithaca M66 Super Single 20 ga for it, straight up. :mrgreen: I like to take her out with me at dusk when I put the chickens up for the night just in case there's a woodland creature lurking about looking for a chicken dinner...
