Mossberg Shockwave vs Remington Tac-14

Hickok 45 welcome to the compound we're gonna compare a couple of firearms they're not pistols they're not shotguns you're probably familiar with them already the Mossberg shock wave and the remington tack 14 all right very similar in many ways and both 14-inch firearms we're gonna shoot them both talked about them and we're going to tell you which one you ought to buy because we're very adamant about that and we know what you what's best for you just kidding let's shoot him put my ears on I got rounds in the magazine and now I've got rounds in the chamber of course everybody knows without a pistol or without a shoulder stock and a longer barrel you can't really hit anything let's try though another pot o mouth ammo oh well five isn't bad let's try some more we've got a Remington here a cowboy oh we're out of ammo okay hmm not bad now for those of you who are watching closely you've noticed one difference I hope alright the first let's look at the similarities alright these came out roughly around the same time you know the Mossberg was first out I guess and then the Remington but they both have the same grip the Raptor grip I'll talk more about that they both have a 14 inch barrel I believe they're exactly 14 inch or a hare overall and I think they're both cylinder bore alright they're both 12-gauge and what else they're they're both about the same price they run around $400 probably out the door or meal now MSRP for 34 44 50 you know I probably get him for a little over 400 there's the Pens in your area they're about the same weight now if you look at the number I think the Remington is maybe a half a pound more or almost have but not enough to matter nothing you noticed picking them up you just really don't okay so in especially loaded because there's another difference you probably notice for those of you who can count alright the Mossberg holds five rounds in the magazine REM can holds four so you know you get another round in the Mossberg and even though the firearms a little lighter then you know that kind of equals out anyway there's not enough difference to tell so I'm gonna say they're about the same way same price so they're very similar in most ways really there's just a few differences you've got a different forearm for in on the Corsa Mossberg at the corncob style there and got the strap there and I put some ugly tape on mine just cuz it had some really rough edges there where it was fastened and the screws and everything but I left the strap on so it feels fine to me I'm if you don't want to use the stretch kind of grab it all I guess but not a problem for me John took his off he probably is living dangerously and the Remington you know you've got the in lock Magpul on there alright that's a big difference okay now this is still this Remington is still the the one we got from buds and probably the time you're seeing this one of you has this shotgun you've probably already bought it off the Egon or auction not probably a hundred percent chance of that right so how do you like it this same gun and so again we appreciate Bud's gun shop comm helping us out in that regard because that's why we're able to compare these we get a lot of firearms from them so it was really nice to get that check out their website and also don't forget to go to the description join the NRA if you're not a member please if you're a interested in firearms you need to support gun rights ok the NRA the biggest most powerful not perfect but they're the most powerful so you ought to be a member and then branch out and join your state organization or maybe your state organization first whatever but join the NRA too then whatever else you can afford that's what I do I belong to about seven I believe okay and I want to try to keep all those memberships up so anyway we do what you can what you can afford to do now the the tape on the the grips this is hockey stick tape it doesn't hockey yeah hockey stick tape it it doesn't come on them but I put it on mine and you know whatever I do is of course something that's smart and brilliant to do so I decided that whoever owns this gun buys this gun on e gunner should have it on theirs right I am arrogant in that regard no actually I'm not I mean I'll probably I was thinking I'll just take it off I guess I will it could be that you like hockey stick tape hunters and would want it on there but I guess I should probably take it off for I sent it back to Budds just matter of tape peeling it off but the reason I did that was I normally don't do much to a farm that I'm sending back you know it's going to somebody else I don't want to mess it up paint the sights and do the things that I would do if it were mine you know you've heard me talk about that before but on this time I wanted to compare them apples to apples as much as possible and it really feels better to me it have some tape on there have something I think Talon grips makes makes it grow think you might have sent me one after I got this on mine come to think of it but you want something on there okay and it feels so dramatically different here's John's now when I pick it up it's just dramatically different I'd be bad-mouthing the Remington's what I was afraid of I would say well this Mossberg just feels so much better than this Remington and it would mainly be because the grip is so slippery for me all right so they feel the same and that's one thing what to talk about now shot on both there to begin with now John and I have shot them both we we loaded them up we have picked one up fired at picked element fired it immediately we did it just before the video neither one of us can really tell any difference okay now if we did it 10 times I don't know maybe with there's just not enough difference to write home about they feel the same okay especially got the same grip same grip tape everything now you got a little different feel there with the four end okay like I said the difference is are going to be the that's the you know the in lock you know that you got on that it's uh and I'm not sure I think I prefer the Mossberg tell you the truth I'm not gonna definitely be hanging anything on a pulp I don't think you like that you know did I do well to get my hand on there but uh yeah it's okay though yeah it's all right I prefer this I think but there's no big problem with that and of course the steel receiver a lot of the differences beyond what I've talked about are just the differences that you have on a Remington versus a Mossberg I've got full-sized 870 here and I've got my Mossberg 590 a 1 there you know same guns you know the where am I here getting lost yep here we go the 590 and then the shock waves are basically the same shotgun right and then the same with the Remington you know and the 870 it's just just a cut-down version of a different grip okay so you have the same differences you know you like a remington because of where the safety is now this is that dressed-up 1 by wilson combat you know it's got these great sights on and all that that I truly love but still general you've got the same operation of 870 ok your location of your safety crossbolt safety in the feel of it slide release up there you know versus on the Mossberg words kind of back here then you got your ambidextrous safety on your monster so it kind of depends on where you come down on some of those differences as to which of these you would prefer ok if you just absolutely love a steel receiver then you know you're probably going to like the remington or you like the feel of the foreign better on one of them versus the other one here's a ramekin with steel receiver I bet they look alike they're easy to confuse you will have to almost look at the four end of to keep track of which one you're talking about so there's not a lot of difference I tell you there's not a lot to fret over if you're trying to decide which of these to buy you're definitely going to buy one of them you know you can't go too terribly wrong either way now again with Remington you know these days and the freedom group you might want to take that into consideration I don't know this thing is seemed to be fine we fired it quite a bit and you know seems to operate just just fine but that is an issue that bothers a lot of people the quality control at Remington in recent years so you know if you're a remington person you're probably going to prefer this one and if you're like moss birds you might prefer for this one i have no trouble with the alloy receivers as I've said on a Mossberg or a Benelli you know they work just fine I don't know anybody who has broken the receiver on their Mossberg you know I just don't and I'm perfectly happy with that so but again there's just not a lot of difference than that let's just see us say we're not going to shoot a lot now one of the differences you know I think I've covered all the similarities pretty much you know they both require no paperwork they're not NFA items you'll know that by now they're not considered a pistol or a shotgun there are a firearm all that but now the Mossberg you can't put an adapter on and shoot the many shells that's what I got a few of these out here and so I stuck that in John's just to show you that if you see has a little piece of rubber I see how fair hoot guys I have a Texas o-p-s up so or something I just googled it and found that and I ordered a couple of those and I have tried them on mine they seem to work fine these adapters and your watching won't work now but shoot these many shells and the Mossberg and these are seven and a half so I don't have any double lock book in that or anything so what we going to shoot to later fry those on fun fun fun let's shoot that target Wow it just keeps shooting well basically I've got those little mini shells in it so now if that's something that appeals to you and that is pretty cool I have to admit now somehow I think the KSG will actually function those as I've read but I'm not a huge fan of KSG about I am of these you know the Mossberg so that's pretty cool that is one point in favor of the Mossberg and that's just a little rubber piece you just stick right in there and comes in and out pretty easily okay so if you want to shoot many shells alc what did I learned this holds the Mossberg holds five rounds with two or three quarter shells and it holds eight you know the many shells in the magazine so it's not like you get 15 in there anything that was just holding eight so but that's nice that's like a full length of shotgun basically you get eight of those and there's an out on an expert on these many shells I don't think federal makes those I think but uh they're available I believe in double-aught buck and slugs because I've got some slugs and birdshot I found hard to find so you know that might be something it's not like you're firing you know twenty-twos those things have a little punch yeah they really do and I I'm not again that familiar with them there's probably something that would be adequate for defensive use so you know if you've got something this size with eight rounds right plus one 12-gauge that ain't all bad is it and it doesn't recall much now like a I don't know maybe a little more than a 410 but kind of in that neighborhood yeah you could do worse couldn't you so that's that's a that's a plus in favor of the Mossberg I'd say right now it could be that this same company is working on that adapter for or something like that you know for the Remington I don't know just keep track of that same so what was I gonna do well she double-aught in both of them okay and then we'll think it's there's no reason to fire them a lot I just want to give you some idea at least our thinking is on them I think John and I both probably prefer the Mossberg but there's still not a lot of difference between the two now this is the Remington so it holds for all right and soap another box and put five would be good but five in the Mossberg the many shelters are premia capability in this particular gun John I pretty much agree that the fact that it holds five it's a big difference maker okay because that's one thing you're doing when you cut this thing down to this size is you're limiting your your capacity but with the Mossberg you know it's just five and with this it's four that's mean you get down to that area that's that's kind of a big difference you know what is that 22 percent I'm like that so you know that's a plus I've got five plus one there's a lot of full-length shotguns that don't hold more than that you know they don't have a true full-length magazine or whatever so alright now this is what I just put in there I meant to put in some yeah double-aught buck okay that was all double-aught buck now this will kick a little more but that's okay Remington oh yeah that's pretty stout look shot hi nice know the cowboy down oh that put the hurt on him what now that that's for some pretty hot stuff it was I guess high brass but doesn't hurt you you get a good grip on that goes alright you can stand it I have confidence in you there's some more of it tombstone yeah dead center of that little of that plate alright I'll he shoots a redwood got some money I'll shoot that big thing oh the reason I brag on myself a a little bit if those one again another point I've made this before some people will make fun of these they're just toys they're junk they're not worth anything hey I wouldn't say that because you can pick that thing up and we're talking 18 20 yards out there yeah yeah and and and of course closer it's even less of an issue so they point very well I would have no problem relying on one of these self defense situation okay and you could even be I guess you could argue that it might hurt your wrist a little bit but you ever trying to manage something a door a flashlight or something you could fire that thing one hand if you had to you know and hold somebody whatever I don't know you do have a shoulder gun too but you know it's just not as worthless as some people like to make them out to be as I think I mentioned the first video of this I think some of that has gone away people have kind of learned and been shooting these and enough people that have a pretty good reputation in the firearms community have you know I think pointed out that there is some value in these that that some of that has has fallen by the wayside they're not total junk ok that's my point I mean they're not the end-all the be-all of everything panacea but the kind of neat they're not that expensive really and the great scheme of things and they work and you got to the major companies making them and so it's kind of a why not if you want one there's another company I've seen mention a lot it's is it Asylum and weaponry the gatekeeper you know I don't have where I actually wrote to I'm wonder if they want sent us one would put it it would be in this video but I didn't hear back from them just you know we're not like I say what if there's five of them out there we're happy to show them all but I expect there will be more and more of them and because they're just they're pretty cool consider you don't need special paperwork so I don't want to take all day you've got things to do and is there anything I forgot to mention lots of similarities but then those few differences I talked about and there's probably something I didn't mention but one of you all will do the cleanup work for me and they both shoot fine yeah like I kind of like them they're they're kind of fun let me shoot this one more time okay I mean they're actually kind of fun like I say if you come down on the side of Remington you probably like the Remington better if you like mouseburgers you probably liked it better one thing about the Mossberg I do like is that position of the safety I did there okay okay they Neverland slide all the way forward I think yeah okay there's five plus one I think I put one in the chamber didn't I let's find out sure get cowboy - cowboy over cowboy red square bowling pin click we're empty so they're not hard to hit with their very user-friendly you know instinct shooting is it's not a problem at all so so both of them I think are kind of fun and you would probably enjoy it if you like shotguns all right so that's that's one thing and as far as the difference between the two there's not a great deal I kind of come down on the side of the Mossberg I guess personally and I think John does those too but again it's not that much different so pick out the one you like if you think you've got to have one of these and enjoy it life is good oh man you guys watch that whole video well
