View Full Version : FN Police pump
I have a chance to buy a NIB FN Police pump action shotgun with rifled sights. The guy is wanting $300.00 cash. Is that a good deal? Also is that a godd shotgun. I've been told that it's basically a Wichester model 1200 with a parkerized finish and rifled sights. Any info would be greatly apprecaited.
Thanks,
JRP99

It's a good gun, but these aren't in high demand. Don't pay him anything that doesn't start with a 2...Offer him $250.

US Repeating Arms in Conn makes them for FN....
Save the money and get a nice used Remington 870P or Wingmaster

Nope...
The End of an Era
On January 16, 2006 U.S. Repeating Arms announced it was closing the New Haven, Connecticut plant where Winchester rifles and shotguns were produced for 140 years.[1] Along with the closing of the plant, the Model 94 rifle (the descendant of the original Winchester rifle), Model 70 rifle and Model 1300 shotgun would be discontinued.
A New Era
On August 15, 2006, Olin Corporation, owner of the Winchester trademarks, announced that it had entered into a new license agreement with Browning to make Winchester brand rifles and shotguns, though not at the closed Winchester plant in New Haven. Browning, based in Morgan, Utah, and the former licensee, U.S. Repeating Arms Company, are both subsidiaries of FN Herstal.

The quality is just not there on them.

Not quality? I strongly disagree...Fit & finish were were/are excellent on my FNs. I can't say the same for Remingtons that I've owned.
