#1 Posted: 11/7/2012 11:53:22 PM Do any of you experts own one?
Good clean fun outdoors and a whole of woopass for your money. Strongly considering a Mossbergy purchase.
I'm not fluent with these long guns at all.
Guns first, rent/food last. |

#5 Posted: 11/8/2012 10:55:33 AM I've got a Beretta 390 12 gauge semi-auto which I love. Clean it once a year and it never misses a beat no matter what ammo you run through it. Also have a Fox 20 gauge double barrel. It still shoots but gunsmith said the 2nd barrel is getting ready to go from all the steel shot I ran through it when I was in high school (2nd barrel has a full choke). It's an oldie, but was a great grouse gun as it is light as a feather. Is now retired and on display.

#6 Posted: 11/8/2012 10:59:37 AM And if you want to buy something, you can find something VERY cheap what will likely suit your needs. It's pretty rare that you find a shotgun that doesn't perform pretty well. |

#11 Posted: 11/8/2012 3:19:56 PM Remington 870 mag. Will shoot anything from 2 3/4 to 3 1/2 and won't jam. I've beat the hell out of mine duck hunting and still shoots everytime. |

Interesting. I just was over at Big 5 after doing a lot of research on the guns you guys have mentioned. Beneli is super impressive but too light I honestly like the over under look of shotguns with the mag tube obviously beneath the shotgun. The 18 or 18.5 inch barrel feels a bit too small for me. Tried the Remington 870 @ 18 inches and that felt awkward on the short end.
Leaning hard on a Mossberg 590 Special purpose 20" barrel. Just feels right for my build and I like the amount of good ole american steel down the lines.
All of the above guns are fantastic, Going to grip a couple more before I make a final decision.

Sorry, I didn't comment on that particular shotgun but just youtubed and read about it on the B website. Seriously impressive firearm. 
Looking more tactical/blow up watermelons though.

You can here this DNA miracle squeeze a chambered round and then just rack another. Looking down the barrel of any loaded weapon is grounds for immediate drowning. |

#19 Posted: 11/8/2012 11:45:58 PM Beretta xtrema2. Best gun on the market. Own many shotguns Remington/Winchester/mossberg. None of them can touch this shotgun. Price is a lil steep at 1400 but it will be last shotgun you ever buy. |

#21 Posted: 11/10/2012 8:29:32 PM Mossberg great value .... they make a ton of great rifles for the money. I would go with the Remington or Mossberg if you didn't want to break the bank.

#23 Posted: 11/12/2012 6:05:19 AM I own two combat shotguns:
Mossberg M590A1 with ghost sights and 9 round capacity.
http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/37_871/products_id/46999
I figure if it’s good enough for Marines to use in combat then it’s definitely good enough for me.
Saiga 12 with a 20 round capacity.
http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=1523&virtuemart_category_id=23
As far as civilian legal CQB weapons go, you’re not going to be able to get much more deadly than a weapon that can fire 20 12 gauge shells in about 5 seconds. |
