i've never been too partial to mossbergs, nothing agianst them but i've always been a remington guy. my first 12 i bought(only one i have) is a rem. 870 express turkey camo. it came with a turkey choke, camo stock, and matte black metal. i think i got it for $220. it's not expensive and it works very well. one way or another i would go with an 870 of some kind.
