Gotta Mossburg 500 cheap a few years back. Has a composite pistol grip and a full stock, a couple of barrels. The 18&1/2 has a cool heat guard and no choke. Man first round of 3" 00 in the short barrel/pistol grip configwas quite a surprise. Because of the PG configuration, there's no way for it to roll in your hand like a big iron pistol. Dang that hurt!

The best home defense gun is one that you can use fast and very accurately. Some might use a Walther PPK, some can handle a police shotgun, some could use an SKS or AK. The best thing you can say about the SKS and AKs is that they never jam. I had an SKS behind the seat of my truck for 7 years. Never cleaned or oiled it, plinked when I wanted to, let anyone shoot it, mixed up the ammo, etc., and put over 1500 rounds through it. And it ALWAYS fired. I also tried same with an AK with similar results. Be safe at all times, and practice, practice, practice. Ain't no gun good if you ain't. You need to shoot and practice often, because most cops don't. By the way, I'm not a habitual slob with my guns. I was TESTING those rifles, and God, did they pass! The commies knew what they were doing.

Yeah buddy. I guess an alternative option to the folding stock would be to install one of those overhead racks from Cabela's; out of sight out of mind, and room for my favorite rifle as well.
