In the market  for a 12 guage

[RED333]

Remington 870, slug barrel and a smooth bore 22 inch barrel set up with choke tubes. As well as a short barrel for home defense. I think the most versatile firearm out there.

What do you want it for? Home defense? Hunting? If so, hunting what?  Skeet or trap shooting?

All this matters to find the right gun, many choices out there.

I have a Mosberg Model 500 pump 12 Ga w a short brl for my house shotgun. Has the extended magazine tube and I put a side saddle for extra ammo on board. Has served me well for years. I had a 20 Ga with a short brl and I ordered a 26' hunting brl for it and gave it to my grandson, for hunting, a few years back. Back when I purchased these shotguns I paid 350.00 for them. The Remington 870 is another pump shotgun and is very good also if you can find them.

Love my 5990A1

Purpose?  While versatile, trying to make one gun do everything well is a compromise.

Them Maverick 88s are hands down the best! 

So versatile! 

Shoot any animal with them... Hit any animal over the head with them.. use it as a crutch, boat paddle, door stop! 

Indestructible!

Ohhhh and they cheaper than dirt too!

I’ll second this one. I’ve got a handful of 12s. The 88 does just as good as my 590. It’s my bedside 12 even though I have higher quality ones. Keep one by the back door for critters. Superb and reliable shotguns and for $250 plus ship and ffl fee you can get the security/field combo and get one with an additional “28 barrel. Can’t beat it buck for buck.

Just saw this on my email.

Mossberg 500 for home defense

[chances R]

Benelli M2.  With proper choke tubes, good for upland hunting, turkey, and self-defense.

870 rem or mossberg 500 will do the job
