How many shotguns do you own?

[Guyon]

Just curious what the numbers look like around here. Thought a poll would allow folks to participate anonymously if they so choose.

 

[Dave McCracken]

7, so far....

 

[dawgtraxx]

just one...Mossy 500

 

[Ringer]

2 pumps, need more!

 

[craig]

12 gauge pump and coach gun for me, 20 gauge pump and coach gun for the wife.

 

[marklbucla]

2 here. 870, 500A

Started with an 870 and made it a combo, but sold the extra parts when they could fund almost a whole new shotgun.

I Found that I could load a Mossberg 500A much faster and I liked it better overall.

 

[Capital Punishment]

my 870 marine magnum is my baby

 

[Rembrandt]

(2) Over-Unders
(5) Pumps
(4) Semi-Autos
(2) Single shots
(1) SXS double

 

[MCgunner]

1 pump
1 auto chucker
1 twice pipe
1 single shooter

3 12s and a 16 gauge. I need a 20.

 

[MedGrl]

1 20 guage Remington 870

 

[Guyon]

I need a 20.

I hear you. Well, while I really don't need a 20, I sure want one, for some reason.

 

[Kingcreek]

'bout 15, I think. pretty good mix of actions, brands, and primary uses. still need a another 20g auto ie. Beretta 390/391, and a good 12g o/u, oh and 28g o/u.

 

[MCgunner]

Oh, sheesh, I forgot, but if you count pistols, I have a .410 barrel for my TC Contender.

 

[nitesite]

One 590 ghost ring 9-shot
One Browning Gold Fusion 12-ga
One Stoeger 20-ga break open single shot

All three get shot a lot. No problems from any of them and good performance from each one. I'd sell the 590 to help get a nice 870 w/ GR sights but the 590 just does everything pretty damn well. The Fusion is a dream.

 

[esheato]

Mossberg 835 12 gauge (hunting)
Browning Gold with DuraTouch in Shadow Grass 12 gauge (hunting)

Browning Feather XS 12 gauge (skeet)
Browning BT-99 Max 12 gauge (trap)
Winchester 101 20 gauge (too good of a deal to pass up).

Eventually I will get a Browning 20 and 28 gauge but that's a few years down...Also looking into a Benelli for home defense.

[kudu]

More than the dozen, but don't know exactly how many without breaking open the safes.

 

[AStone]

I have only one. (See user name.)

I feel a need for only that one.

It feels good in my hands, all black & synth.

If I want, I can install different barrels for hunting,
but for now, that 18" suits me fine
for keeping an eye on the studio.

Recently, it donned a sling,
installed 'upside down' for African carry.

Now, said puppy mostly stays upstairs.
While downstairs, especially 'after hours',
I've got the 9 in an OWB.
It would allow getting to the 870P,
should I hear breaking glass or a door being busted.

Load? 00 RR.

It's enough.

Having owned over two dozen guns in the last 15 years I've made a conscious effort to thin the herd and upgrade. Here's where I ended up.

12 gauge o/u for clays
12 gauge semi-auto for waterfowl, back up clays gun and loaner if required.
12 gauge sxs for upland
28 gauge o/u for subgauge clays and back up for upland
12 gauge 870 with three barrels (14" 20" 28") for slug hunting, predator control and back up waterfowl gun.

 

[foghornl]

Just one right now...Maverick 88 Have both the 28" modified choke and the 18-1/2" cylinder bore barrels. Usually it wears the short "Home & Land Security" barrel

But on the lookout for a short 'Coach Gun' with the big external 'dog ear' hammers. I'll find what I want in that fairly soon.

 

[scout26]

I live in Illinois, so I don't own any, I lost all 8 in a tragic boating accident many years ago.

 

[ddj8052]

I currently own two shotguns:

Remington 11-87 which I use for trap and hunting.

Mossberg 590a1 for HD.

I am currently looking for a reasonably priced O/U for use on the trap range, but so far everything is much more expensive than I can swing, so the hunt continues.

 

[JesseL]

Four

Two Winchester model 12s, on in 16ga and one in 20ga.
An A.H. Fox 12ga sbs.
A Savage 28ga single shot, no idea what the model is.

 

[osteodoc08]

I've got a Mossy 500 in 12 gauge and a Rem 870 in 20 gauge.
