[QUOTE="ttown, post: 3529356, member: 2114"] My 500 was purchased by me in 1975 at Service Merchandise for $79.95 plus tax. No vent rib modified choke. That gun was used for everything, gave it to my oldest grandson on his 18th birthday, as he started hunting with friends and their dads. Brought him a screw in choke barrel as he was duck hunting. Although not steel shot approved that gun had hundreds of rounds o steel through it as it’s all I had or could afford. I always got a loan from a friend though their parents as my dads prize gun is a shot out RG22 9 shot revolver Used the 500 until I purchased a browning O/U in 1982 at the Tulsa Gun show for $650, use it today never taken it apart man this thing a glock, clean and shoot easy breakdown, ability to adapt to shoot long to short range birds as they fly in and out or visa versa. The auto 5’s are great but i felt I had to empty the gun on a covey or flock and never really retrieved more than a couple birds anyway, no telling how many really died latter. [/QUOTE]
