I also was considering for a *very* long time if I should get shotgun barrels for my Krieghoff for add. training and familiarity.

After much thought and endless hours of discussions with my buddies (my red wine depot really took a hit back then

) I finally decided against it for the following reasons:

- Cost, (just short of 2K euro's from Krieghoff)
One can get *a lot* of reloading done for that amount, even w/ 500NE, besides for real double rifle training, one would have to shoot slugs from the shotgun barrels, and those aren't exactly cheap either

- Lack of balance:
Compare the wall thickness of a 500NE barrel to a 20gauge! Since the weight distribution of the rifle is made for balance with the rifle barrels, the balance w/ shotgun barrels is bound to be horrible!

So for my part, I'd rather reload...!
