Good quality shotgun at an inexpensive price my son needs his gun skeet shooting with his FAA will definitely do more business with buds

Fantastic pump action for the price point. The flat black finish is a clean look and easy to clean. Barrel length helps with the accuracy as well as the overall balance when you’re shouldering to fire, quick to sight your clays or other targets at least in my shooting and cycles spent shells smoothly. I used this to win a company skeet competition against other semi autos and a couple over/unders and everyone remarked on the capacity of the magazine without a plug. Overall it is a great gun for a casual shooter, a backup to a dedicated competition or field gun, or even as an introductory firearm for a first time purchase.

Another great purchase from buds. This H&R Pardner is built like a Tank.This is my second H&R Pardner and I love them both.I also have a 20ga that me and my son have shot a ton of clays with no issues at all.I can't say enough good things about this gun. Its Cheap,functions like it should,Remington 870 parts fit on it and will last a long time with proper care.Plus I heard rumors that H&R stopped production,so get them while you can! I would give it 6 stars if it was an option.

Other reviews are right, this shotgun is built like a tank. Fit and finish seems great. It's weight should help with recoil.

Decent for the money. No issues at all. Very heavy. Clean all the factory gunk out of it and oil it up and it will run forever. Thanks buds.

Loving it .... compared to my friend remington 870 side by side, aside from some differences in the finish which the remington is definitely better considering the price the NP1 wins on everything else , the extra weight helps buffering some of the recoil and the trigger guard is made of steel also the barrel is made of thicker steel I find it better balanced as well

Great shotgun. It will last several lifetimes, and is very reliable. It's a little stiff, at first, but breaks in just fine. Comes with one choke, a modified, and a choke tool. The synthetic stock is very sturdy. No malfunctions or mechanical problems. Overall, I would trust it in the field or by the bed, without hesitation.

Can't beat the price. Sure it's a knock-off, but still gets the job done. Recommend.

First off, Bud's is the BEST place to purchase my firearm needs, hands down! The biggest reason I say this is price matching! Second reason is ease of purchase and shipping! So a big thank you to the Bud's Team for treating me very well over the last year, absolute first class service! Now to the Pardner pump! I did a lot of research before I pulled the trigger on this shotgun, no pun intended. I was torn between the Stoeger P3000, Rem 870 and the Pardner pump. After much lost sleep I decided to go with the PP. The number #1 reason why I choose this gun over the others was "value" for the price and #2 reason was an all steel receiver and trigger group! Let me echo what others have said online about this gun and after having physically fondled, ugh, I mean, holding the gun, via Pros and Cons; Pros = it is a TANK! Solid and heavy! The synthetic stock is not your flimsy feeling type of stock, nope, very very nice furniture on this gun. Finish on the outside of the gun is a really nice deep black park finish, I was surprised at how good it looked for the price. Goes bang every time! Fits Carlson's Winchester/Invector style choke tubes, NOT invector plus! Shot 2 3/4 Remington waterfowl loads and AA Win skeet loads without a hitch through mid (.715) and long (.705) range waterfowl chokes from Carlson's! Plus, the factory choke that came with the gun patterned surprisingly well, 22 pellets in a 8" kill zone @ 25yrds! Gonna try 3" waterfowl loads in the future, but not before I pick up a medium slip on recoil pad, maybe an Allen Eraser or Hi Viz, why? The butt stock is similar to a youth 20 gauge in size, both width and LOP. So I need an 1" more and some cushion because it will bruise you with the heavier loads, it did me! Another HUGE plus is the 28" barrel which I noticed tracks very nicely for clays. It almost seems to slow down time and allow for those relaxed rather than rushed point and shoot moments, a HUGE plus for waterfowl hunting, which is what I bought the gun for in the first place. Comes with a pretty nice plug black plug for bird hunting too! Cons = the soldering joints are rough and kind of ugly imo. Machine marks galore on the inside of the receiver, which made me frown a bit, but you get what you pay for. Out of the two guns I purchased I had one that had a magazine jamming issue right out of the box that required about 20 minutes and a small round bastard file to open up the mag tube well for shells to feed, other wise it would hang with a shell stuck in the mag mouth. Did the fix and now she runs anything and everything with no issues! BTW, the steel is mega quality and hard! It took a ton of elbow grease to get any metal off that receiver, I was cursing up a storm I tell ya! The gun does not come with sling studs, which is a pain in the rear end trying to find an online solution and again I frowned. one last minor complaint is the flimsy plastic mag follower, but it can be remedied with a factory 870 rem follower or what I did was just went ahead a got a brass follower to match the front bead sight! Overall, although many die hard brand folks will vilify Chinese made firearms, I am more than ecstatic with my purchase! The hefty feel, the solid slop free double rail pump (uhm, cough, cough, Moss..., cough, Rem...), deep black park finish, hardcore synthetic stock and the confidence of knowing the gun will deliver the goods is well worth the steal of a price! Would i buy one again? HELL YES! Would I recommend it to someone else to buy? HELL YES and be DAMN sure to buy the Bud's lifetime warranty for this gun when you do purchase, just trust me! Would I get it at Bud's again? OHHHH HELL YESSSS!!!

This is a really nice shotgun, it points well and is super sturdy. $150 for an 870 clone was an impossible deal to pass up. I had purchased it with the intention to chop the barrel to 20", add a mag tube, and a new stock. After inspecting it and seeing how well built it was I decided it is now my bird gun, the only change I will make is adding a fiber optic front sight. I am tempted to get another one while they are this price, you can never have too many shotguns.

You won't find a better shooting, more reliable pump for the price. Bought this in May 2016 and have now put close to 2,500 rounds of various brands of low brass loads through it shooting clays and it continues to function like new. I always keep all the moving parts well lubricated, and after 1,000 rounds or so, remove the trigger assembly (which is very easy to get out) and oil and grease it. Some brands of low brass stick a little and can be hard to eject, but that's a issue with the shells, not the gun. Other brands work fine. On buying from Buds, I've purchased about a dozen firearms from them and never had a problem of any kind. Buds doesn't always have the lowest price (but they usually do) and they're my first stop when looking for a firearm. BTW, this gun will break just as many clays as my Rem. 1100 Sporting or Browning Maxus Sporting but cost a small fraction of those.

I just took mine out for 100 rounds of clay shooting. It runs perfectly. Everything seems to be stout and well made. You can spend more on a nicer looking pump, but you won't get a more reliable one. This is a working man's pump shotgun.

Bought this Pardner pump recived it at my local FFL turn's out it had a bent magazine tube didn't realize this until I got home with the shotgun, at the ffl I just gave it a look over, I called bud's and explained they told me since I already took it from the ffl they just recommended the factory warranty called Remington sent it in and Remington replaced it with a new pardner pump haven't shot it yet haven't had the chance.But this shot gun over all is pretty nice 870 clone.

Great shotgun for the price kind of heavy but well built great for my use which is duck and dove.

I was very skeptical about this shotgun, not ever owning a H&R or New England Shotgun, but boy I was glad that I'm a tight wad. Excellent gun, got it quick, gave her a quick clean up and oil before assembling and trying it out. I was very impressed. I've held cheap guns and this one felt nothing like other brands I won't mention. Very solid, well made, cycled like a charm. As for the recoil, it way less than I expected, of course I was just shooting bird shot, but once eyes are on target, you won't have a sore shoulder from shooting this gun over and over...trust me..after shooting clays, cans, and other targets my shoulder don't feel like I got tackled by a linebacker. If I have a complaint, it's that they don't make it in 20 gauge, I'd love to get a few for the young,pre-teen hunters in my family. Great Price, Great Gun, about 180 bucks, it pays to be frugal

Have hunted with this shotgun about five times so far this season. Yes it will kill ducks however I changed the choke out for a modified...winchester/mossberg chokes fit it. The improved cylinder it came with was more like a full. The pros about this gun is that it was cheap. I also bought a $30 camo wrap kit from mossy oak and it looks great. However there are a few cons. First, it needs to be cleaned very well in order to function. The last time I hunted, I didn't have time to clean it beforehand. It jammed a couple of times on me. After I shot, I could not cycle the spent shell out of the cylinder. I could only move the pump grip about a half inch. Some tapping and messing with the release would ultimately free up the action. This happened to me the first couple of times taking it out also. The only time it didn't happen was when I thoroughly cleaned it before going out which makes me think it just needs to be worn in. Also another con is the finish. It's almost non-existent. It has a very cheap coat that is not blueing. After the very first time out in the rain, parts showed rust such as the vent tube rail and the cap on the mag tube. I clean it immediately after bringing it home now. If not, this gun would be completely rusted in no time. Overall, it was still a deal. This is my first season duck hunting and it did the job. My freezer has been full of ducks since I got it. I guess the saying is true...you get what you pay for. Would I do it again?...sure why not.

Just recieved my Pardner Pump today. I am a first time firearm owner and purchaser. I have shot family members firearms (1911, ar15, Ruger p22, and pardner shotgun). The packaging was undamaged and clean and everything that i expected came in the box nice and speedy shipping by the way made my last payment and by the next day it had been shipped and arrived as promised in about 3 business days i believe. Buds offers a great service by their layaway plan by the way very much appreciated by me and im sure many other. As for the gun itself it is heavy and and most of it feels like it comes from the barrel. The shotgun was clean with nothing wrong that i could note out of the box. One word of warning though the bluing is a bit sensitive i dont know how but in the process of cleaning the packaging oil off of it i somehow scratched it on the receiver. Over all awsome shotgun for the money and i will definitely be back to Buds for my next firearm purchase.
