RE: Looking at possible first guns.
Alright, after looking at the Stoeger P-350 it really looks nice for the price. I wonder though, is a rifled slug barrel available for it? If not, then does anyone know how their autoloader, the Model 2000, is? I figure I'd use this in non-rifle zones in New Jersey and New York, and buckshot just seems really messy and underpowered to me. From my browsing around, these are the guns I'm currently looking at:
Shotguns (12 Gauge)
Benelli: Super Black Eagle II
Mossberg: Model 500 Field
Remington: Model 870 Express Combo, Model 870 Wingmaster, Model 1100 Classic Field, Model 105CTi
Stoeger: Model 2000, P-350
Rifles (.30-06 or .300 Winmag)
Browning: BAR LongTrac
CZ: 550 American, 550 FS
Mauser: K98
Remington: Model 700 CDL, Model 700 SPS, Model 798
Ruger: M77 International, M77 Standard
Savage: 110GXP3
Springfield: M1 Garand, M1903
Winchester: Model 70 Classic
Is there anything there that I shoudln't consider?
