I’ve looked into many a different items since posting this last night. Here is what I will begin buying a mossberg 500 ag .410 the reason for the 410 I can use bird shot, slug, and what is called a deer shot which looks like a regular bullet not a shotgun shell. The Ag has a Tommy gun style handle on the pump action and I can put a shorter butt on it like a hand gun and return it back to the regular butt for hunting game. I think a 410 will be easier to handle than a 12ga for close encounters so to say and it has almost the stopping power of a 44. I can get one with all the bells and whistles for around 400 bucks. After that I will do more asking around and go from there. thanks all

.410 is traditionally more expensive than 12 ga. ammo. It doesn’t make as big a hole, either.
I consider it a beginners round. Go for the 12 gage like the Remington 870. You can get interchangeable barrels for low $ to achieve your means. I hunt and a 410 is not a round I would consider.
