Chaszel adapters

[Rio Grande]

Just ordered a 7 1/2" . 38 Special rifled adapter for .410
shotgun. First time buy from Chaszel. I own Short Lane ones
and their quality is great. From Chaszel site the quality appears equal.
I planned to use my new adapter in my 20 ga. NEF using a Savage .410 adapter, but I'm tempted to buy a single shot .410 for a dedicated .410/.38.
Chaszel has a good website, but after purchase notification leaves a bit to be desired. (No email order verification).

Wow, and you live in Alaska? Practicality first!

I have one as well. Ordered the shorter one but they were out (website said in stock) and they contacted me and offered me the longer one (18") for the same price. Quality looks to be as good as the Short Lane. Have both, one in 357 and one in 45LC. Like Markopolo I haven't had a chance to do a lot of work with either. I bought Savage/Stevens 94's to use them in and have epoxied scope bases on them. Maybe the range will reopen some day.

I have a LOT of the Short Line adapters. They come in real handy for developing loads that you can't find any book data for or for shooting up the loads that aren't up to your expectations. Easier and more fun that using an inertia bullet puller. Accuracy is somewhat dubious. Gp

I want an 18" 20 gauge to .357 one. Have an old beat up barrel that'll fit on a Savage 219 action. Have to figure out sights or a scope mount.

I have a 7 1/2 " one for my Stevens 410. It would NOT fit in my folding Yiltz 410 however.

I bought 2 for 20 ga- 327 Fed (5 ")and 357/38 (8"). Only single shot shotgun I have in 20ga is a Rossi with 2 barrels, 20ga and 22lr.
They work well, I'm just a little inaccurate with a single bead and no shotshells. My goal is to get some rifle sights or some kind of red dot sight.

[Markopolo]

Yes BB... for shooting Boo Boo.... and the long one fits in both my 410 single shots...

[psweigle]

I have the 32 s&w long for 410 and use it in a rossi youth single shot for the grand kids. It's a lot of fun. I'm happy with the quality.

hey!!! it could happen... i could actually be first..!

I just bought the 12ga.-.410 to use in my H&R I’ve had since I was 10. I haven’t used it for years, it will give me a good excuse to pull it out and play.

On youtube, ZRUS Outdoors Channel, he shows how to put a red dot mount on a 12 And/or 20 fauge singleshot shotgun. Todd/3leg

i have a slew of them for my over and under 12g... i like to be able to bring some bullet ability to my duck setup..

How do they work the extractor system.? On a U tube video the guy pulled out the case with his fingers. I would have thought there would be a groove to hook a screwdriver in or something.
Does the adaptor have a cut out so the gun extractor does not pull it out each time?

KeithThe 2 I bought, one did and one didn't.
If I remember correctly, the 5in 327/32 adapter is the one that didn't. I simply ground out the cutout using the other adapter as a reference.

I have 2 of his 12 ga. adapters. 1 in .45 Colt and 1 in .45 acp. I use them in a "Hatfield" break open. The gun has a rib and it is easy to find either a scope mount or set of open sights to attach to the rib. With this gun it's child's play to remove the extractor. They're a lot of fun. Here's an old pic of the gun.

I've found that experimenting with o-ring size has a big effect on accuracy.

The adapter has a cut out so you ca. Remove the case easily. I position tbe cut out opposite of the ejector.

I emailed twice with requests did they receive order.
It is the weekend, I'm sure I'm ok.

Shotgun inserts can be very effective. The Germans have made all sorts of technical marvels in insert barrels, but they tend to overdo it. Not much point in having a .22 Hornet insert which cost more than a rifle in the same caliber.

I used to make shotgun inserts in .22 Long Rifle caliber by offsetting the liner to compensate for the rim diameter. The inserts were surprisingly accurate.

The pictures are from an experiment to shoot .22 LR in a 577/450 Martin Henry. In theory, the bullet should just stay clear of the .45 caliber barrel, but unfortunately it didn't, and while the bullet didn't actually tumble, it was all over the target. I should probably have angled the bore line of the insert slightly towards the center of the rifle barrel. The extractor was spring loaded and the "bobbed ears" would allow the rifle extractor to pass the insert rim. When turned 90 degrees, the inset would pop out when working the lever.

The most silly insert I made was a "sleeve" for shooting 16 gauge shells in a twelve gauge gun, but as an excuse I was young, poor and someone had given me several boxes of 16 gauge for free.

I stand corrected.
Chaszel got right back to my e-mails.
Very fast and good reply!

Extremely fast shipping, adapter looks great. Fits well.

I have 3 of his long adapters. Mostly I have not played with them much. I consider it an investment in case of SHTF and ammo becoming harder to find.

Take something like a Handi Rifle .30-30 20 ga combo. Add a 16" rifled adapter for .45acp. Well it may not have the accuracy of the dirty thirty. But it is quieter, and would work perfectly well for popping a rabbit/coon at closer ranges. It would do so with less noise. For the cost, seems like a pretty cheap insurance policy.

Less weight to carry than a full barrel. Adds flexibility and options. I'm still learning how to get the most accuracy from these inserts. But they show potential IMO.

He'll have them in a couple months I'm gonna get a 357 and 45LC when available

[Ziptar]

I put myself on the waiting list for a bunch of the long inserts a while back. Just got an email that the the 18" 12 Gauge to .45-70 are in stock so I ordered one. Going to use it in a Baikal TOZ-66 20" SXS, it'll be a fun experiment. Been looking for a NEF/H&R Handi, Buffalo Classic, or Shikari but if this works out maybe not.
