Stainless Shotguns?

ColonelKorn · 07-29-2015, 10:20 AM

Anybody make a 100% stainless model of any configuration?

They are known as "marine shotguns" for use around salt water.
Just enter that in your browser search.

I thought marine shotguns were nickel plated?

Yea. When They make a Mossberg 590A1 in stainless I'll be in line for a week.
Matter of fact, how about a 50771 version complete with a stainless bayonet.
I think I can do a mike drop after that statement.

Snake Charmer used to make a little stainless steel .410 shotgun. I don't know if they are still in production, but you should be able to find a used one.

I don't think nickel plating is an option, in America, anymore.
There are very few places that still 'legally' chrome.

You know, the 'environment' and all.

I can not recall ever seeing a shotgun other then .410 in SS.

Mossberg calls their patented metal protection Marinecote and they don't reveal exactly what it is, but it works. Remington's process is stated to be electroless nickel plating, which also works.

Winchester used to make it's Defender in stainless steel, too. I haven't really looked for one, so I can't tell you if they still make them, or not.

I'm sure I may be wrong by now but the receivers on most were chemically coated and the parts may be stainless.
