I am looking for a 20 gauge pump shotgun for everything hunting(deer,squirrel,bird,turky,etc.). I'm looking at the remington model 870 or a mossberg. I was wondering if any of you guys have had good or bad luck hunting with these guns. and if not, any other good 20 gauge shotguns?

i have two 500's, (12,20 ga) mainly b/c I have the defect of being left eye dominant. I do love them both and have never had 1 problem with either. the ambedextrious(?) safety is awesome. but I have heard a lot of praise for the rem's

spend a few extra bucks and go with the 870 nothing against mossberg but in my opinion rem. is the more quality firearm

stear clear of the mossberg,it ain't nothing but trouble.


I am not a hunter I am a whitetail population reduction specialest

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

I have no idea why some people insist on dumping on Mossberg. Yes they are cheaper and not as shiny, but they will shoot just as good or better than a Remington any day of the week.

I owned a Mossberg, then after I owned it I realized why I still hunt with Remingtons. I guess thats why I own 6 different type/caliber Remington 870's.

If you can afford the extra 50 bucks or so, go with the Remington. Much better gun. Lighter too.

Wal-Mart Special Mossberg 500!

Cheap & gets the job done.....what else do you need out of a shotgun? I started both of my boys out on this gun and they've brought home meat everytime.

Why can't everybody see the light like frizzllr and Whiz?<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

<font face='Verdana'></font id='Verdana'>I currently have a Mossberg 500 AT and a Mossberg 835 UltiMag. I use them for everything from squirrels to deer....never had a problem with either one of them. I use one as a backup for the other but have never had to use the backup. Mossbergs may not look all that pretty but THEY WORK and won't break you wallet.
