[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4011251, member: 45773"] Pump: I've carried and used Rem 870 and Mossberg 590 shotguns. Personally, I liked the 870 better. If I was looking for a pump gun, I'd get an 870P (Police model) because they're a little more robust with all metal vs plastic parts...like trigger guards and such. Buy a used one for the best value. But, I do like the safety placement on the Mossberg better. Semi-Auto: The only real "tactical" semi-autos I've ever owned and shot extensively are a Beretta 1201FP (discontinued long ago) and a Rem 11-87 Police (which I still have). That Beretta was far and away the fastest semi-auto I've ever shot (but admittedly, that's not a long list). The Remington is kind of a dinosaur in the minds of some but when used with full-power ammo it's been 100% reliable for me. It's heavy and heavy duty and has excellent ghost-ring sights that really work well for me. The weight absorbs a LOT of the recoil. I don't think you're going to get into a Beretta or Benelli for the $1k budget you're looking at. [/QUOTE]
