* HOW to avoid SCAMMERS !!!

How to reduce risk of being scammed or bad deals !!!

* Obtain FULL information of the counterparty

Name, full address and phone number (PAL number), ask for more actual detailed picture of the item before sending money or goods.
Better spend couple of minutes to have a real conversation over the phone with buyer/seller.

* Attitude and manner the counterparty communicates could be an indicator – will you deal with a real person who communicates the way he/she does in real life?

Clearing a Double Feed in your Remington 870

silvercore | Training | January 20, 2011

A friend of mine was having some issues with his pump action shotgun when we were hunting in the marshlands of Ladner BC. The shell latch would fail which would cause a double feed in the shotgun essentially jamming the action open and rendering fire firearm inoperable. He explained to me that this was happening on a regular basis and that he would have to use his knife or a stick to pry the round out.

I showed him a simple stoppage clearance drill that we commonly teach on our shotgun courses.
