Welcome to the forum Plainsman,Retire a Auto5.and looking at a Mossberg. hmmm I would stick with the Auto 5 over a Mossberg anyday. Remington Junk? I have to agree some of Remington' s newer releases fit that discription. The Remington 870 though is one of the finest if not the finest pump guns made.It' s your money and you can spend it as you see fit.Look at the Rem 870 before you buy your Mossberg. The 870 might surprise you.
Ruger Redhawk
