Choosing a new shotgun.
 

In a few months I am going to buy a mossberg 500. It is $175. It is nice. Shoould I get it? What is another light, cheap and reliable 12ga? The most I am willing to pay is $250.00. Thanks,

Bubba

Mossberg 500 is a ok gun for that price but i would buy a Remington 870 Express and put a Remington Ventilator choke in it.

It will do at that price. You can always get a better shotgun at a later date. I have been shooting Mossberg's fo over 30 years and they have never let me down yet. I own 3 Mossbergs 2 12 gauges and a 20 gauge. Only problem I have ever had with them is the safety botton breaking off.

without a doubt, for a few bucks more, a remington 870, I wounldn't waste my money on a mossberg.

I would too spend just a few more dollars and go with the Remington.

About how much would an 870 cost?

I got my 870 supermag during Christmas and it cost me $270+ tax. I love the 870's, never had any problems with them. I don't know much about the mossberg 500 but I do know you can't go wrong with the 870.

RE: Choosing a new shotgun.
 

i would go w/ a rem 870 express. i bought one a couple of years ago w/ a 21&quot; barrel and a super full rem choke and i love it. i paid about $280. i would not waste my money on a mossberg.

Are they as light as a mossberg? I want a real light weight gun.

Buy ya an 870 either express or supermag and put a remington Ventilator choke on it and you got one hell of a turkey gun. Just pattern it and match the right shell to the choke and you got a gun that will hammer the turks everytime out to 40 yards. If you buy that gun and that choke you will never buy another turkey gun again
