Good grief. That is even farther out of reach dollareise than it use to be. I will settle for my 870 and other tools.

Yes, I feel like Granny Clampett when I use that gun. :-) The only problem I have is my husband keeps locking it up in the safe. He says it’s too valuable to leave around. In the case it’s not out where I can grab it I have my grandpa’s old Mossberg 12ga. and my .38 special next to the bed.

That’s a special model with wood furniture so it looks like a WWI trench gun. Also, street price on that model (like any other) would be less than MSRP, as the distributor/wholesale prices run to the mid $600s on those. A comparable 590A1 without wood and heat shield would be about $150 less than that. So keep saving those pennies!

Can you get a 30-round drum for that pump gun?

That’s how I feel about my Benelli M3 Super 90. I have an 870 and love it to but it’s no Benelli. I even had the 870 completely gone through and upgraded by Scattergun Technologies. They’re both nice tools. I’m surprised no one has mentioned it but I like shotguns for home defense simply due to the fact they are less likely to punch through multiple walls and take out a neighbor.

Duck hunters have an edge in operating a pump under pressure,I’d say. The ergonomics be On my way! Second nature.

To a pitbull, too. Better to drop to a knee and scratch it behind the ear.
