Default Benelli Nova or Mossberg 500

Have a dilemna with purchasing my first gun. Found a great deal on a 12ga camo 28" Benelli that had been pawned -- $200. Also like the Mossberg 500 for feel and option of 2nd barrell -- $235 at Walmart and about the same from pawn shop through dealer. I plan to hunt pheasant primarily, but also shoot some clays and maybe someday try deer and turkey. Is it worth it to go for the Benelli and add a slug gun down the road, or should I go for the convenience and frugality of the Mossberg. And of course, what is everyone's opinion of the overall quality and experience with each model. Thanks!
