I wouldn't bother with a tactical version. Just go look for a good used 1100 or 11-87. Doesn't have to be a remington though, there are other good deals on used shotguns as well, like franchi and the such. The A-5 stalker I just sold would have been perfect. Remington also has a SPR 453 that I have heard good things about.

I wouldn't look for something too tactical just in case they do shoot someone with it. It would look better in court if it was a more "normal" sporting type shotgun. Wouldn't hurt to join a local skeet range or buy a small game tag every year either. It sucks that things are like that, but they are.
