Shotgun Parts for Stevens

Equip Yourself With Shotgun Parts for Stevens Guns

Whether you're on a range or in the field, you'll want to have the right parts in your Stevens shotgun to give yourself a good opportunity to hit your target. There are a number of parts available on eBay, ranging from Stevens 320 barrels to Stevens 12-gauge stocks. There may be both new and used shotgun parts for Stevens, with the used parts likely being more affordable than their counterparts.

The 320 12-gauge pump-action shotgun is a well-known choice among many hunters and target shooters due to its accuracy and features for precision shooting. The Savage Stevens 320 accessories on eBay include replacement components and aftermarket items. Examples are:

• Collapsible stocks
• Adjustable stocks
• Tactical forends
• Shell carriers
• Heat shields
• Pistol grips
• Scope mounts

As you think about which barrel you'd like to purchase, whether you need a Stevens 320 replacement barrel or a different kind, the first thing you'll need to decide is length. Some barrels are very short, and these are ideal for self-defense since they make the shotgun easy to maneuver. At the other end of the spectrum, 32- and 34-inch barrels are mainly used in competition, when shooters are highly trained and focusing on specific types of shots. In the middle of this range are more versatile barrels that offer good accuracy without being too heavy. In general, longer barrels have a smoother swing, and shorter barrels are easier to move around. Common barrel lengths are:

• 24 inches
• 26 inches
• 28 inches
• 30 inches

The stock is another key component of a shotgun, and you'll benefit from having a stock that feels comfortable against your shoulder. Some considerations to take into account when buying a Stevens 320 stock or another type of stock are:

• Material: Many are made out of wood, which has a timeless feel to it. Wood stocks are less likely to be adjustable, so you'll have to be sure of what length you'll need. Stocks can also be made out of thermoplastics; a combination of fiberglass, kevlar, and other products; or metal.
• Pistol grip: Tactical shotguns will have pistol grips, typically made out of a durable, lightweight plastic. The type of plastic is often polymer, which is weather-resistant. The advantage of a pistol grip is that you can hold a shotgun with one hand while you're not using it.
• Matching forend: Some Savage 12-gauge stocks and other types of stocks will come with matching forends. If you need a complete stock and forend, finding one of these sets is convenient. You'll be holding onto these parts of the shotgun most frequently, so it can be comfortable if they have the same weight and feel to them.
