AJ52 sez:
I've had a few guys poke fun at my old 500 Mossbergs.
I'll bet a dollar to a doughnut that those jokers are just jealous and feel stupid. Cause they spent a whole lot more on their "premium" guns and they don't shoot any better than yours (which cost considerably less). I'll bet they don't really like the H&R either cause they might have spent more on their scopes than you did on your gun. A bit like a broken sewage pipe aren't they? Poop just flowing right out.
If there are two darn good guns to do any job you need a shotgun to do - it would be the 500 and 870.
Give your buddies a tissue a piece and tell them to stop their sniveling.
