I recommend something in the Mossberg 500 line- you can dress them up to be tacticool with enough attachments that you cannot lift it, and at a fairly reasonable price. That being said, I like plain old wood- because if you have no ammo, you need a club.

I like plain old wood because if you ever do have to use the gun, it looks more like grampa's shotgun to a jury, and less like something that would cause Chuck Schumer to sh!t himself.

I recommend something in the Mossberg 500 lineI've been looking at them. They are at the top of the list. Anyone want to talk me out of it?

Based on my personal experience, a wood stock on a 870 can break easily near the metal receiver when you butt stoke some&^% with it, it is hollowed/drilled out for a long bolt that starts at rear of stock behind the butt plate.

Agreed. We have a Mossberg 500 tactical and its a great weapon. You cannot go wrong with one.

IMO, the best one I have seen is the Remington Nitromag tactical. Hands down. It’s a tried and true platform.

My 2nd choice would be the Mossberg 500 choice with the integrated light.
