SC..i will catch some flak for this but I have owned one Mossberg 835 pump and I will never own another mossberg anything the rest of my life. They are total unadulterated crap
I only need it to go off once... its a turkey gun. You'll get no arguement from me about the quality of the thing, but it throws a hell of a tight pattern.
My gripe is from a huntability standpoint. The skinny round foreend likes to roll off my knee. They make a laminated flat one, but won't come off one aftermarket. I think I'll just get a barrel for the Encore or stick with the 870 for the most part next spring.
