[QUOTE="Mitch Rapp, post: 2217158, member: 332"] Well, if money is tight , the Mossberg 500's work. If money doesn't matter a lot, but it's gotta be under say $500, go with a Benelli Nova, Dick's has nice HD ones for good prices. If money is no concern whatsoever the more expensive Benelli semi Autos are suweeeeet! As for my experience, by which I make this reccomendation... I have owned a couple of different Mossy 500s and while they were great guns, one did start to give me problem later in its life, but always cycled fine. It just started light striking primers. The other 500 gun I had was a police trade in, and it still ran like a champ. The 3 870's I have owned or used extensively all ran great, but the newer ones just always felt like they had sand in the action. I had an old 870 police trade in, and it was smooth and nice, but still doesn't compare to the smoothness of my Nova. Love my Nova, and while like I said, a cheap Mossberg will do the job, my suggestion would be a Nova. As far as pump vs Semi, I would suggest a Semi, but not a cheap one. Reason I say a semi is that it can be used one handed if you have to open a door, hold onto a child, are hurt, or anything else. [/QUOTE]
