Like you I want a quality O/U. Eighteen more years and my son will be out of college – maybe then.

I used to have an 870 but I gave it to my friend so he would come and shoot with me; which worked great by the way.

I’ve owned and sold off two Beretta’s; a 391 and a Blackwing. I should have kept the Blackwing.

[Tony617]

1 Mossberg Maverick 88
2 Mossberg 590A1

 

[armoredman]

CZ. Well, it's the only shotgun I own right now.

 

[Skribs]

I have one Benelli (SuperNova) and one Mossberg (930 SPX). So its a tie.

 

[Sauer Grapes]

It's a tie for me, 3 Berettas and 3 brownings with a couple older SxS's thrown in for good measure.

 

[Fiv3r]

I currently own an old 870p and an Ithaca 37 DSPS.
I've had a Stoeger Outback (sold it foolishly even though it wasn't fantastic)
I had an 870 Express (my first shotgun, and traded it off for the 870P...good choice)

The Ithaca is my favorite: I'm a southpaw and it was owned by a friend. If I ever manage to wear it out/retire it, I have a feeling I'll be picking up another just like it.

 

[cmdc]

Never counted them before. Let's see.

FN SLP

[PJR]

2 Berettas (perhaps soon to be 3)
2 Perazzis
1 Arrieta
1 Remington

 

[MagDad]

One Benelli Montefeltro 12 gauge 26 inch barrel removable chokes
One Browning Citori 1970s 12 gauge 28 inch barrels mod and full
One Remington 11 1950s 16 gauge 28 inch barrel full as full can be


Searching for the home defense gun, looking for an older 870 that I can cut down or order a short barrel for.

Ones I have had:
Mossberg 500 no problems just really light gun for 3 inch mag duck loads
Remington 870 Special Field, gave it to the kid down the street who had his eyes on it. Wish I had it back 21 inch barrel 870 controls what is not to like?
Benelli Nova Tactical, just did not get along with it and I thought it was clunky and blocky. It did always fire however, just did not fit me.

 

[iLikeOldgunsIlikeNewGuns]

Three-way tie for me, I only have three so far, all in 12 gauge (photo at bottom)

1 Winchester- my first shotgun soon as I was old enough. It's a model 1912 (or model 12? which is correct?), with poly-choke adjustable muzzle-choke, bought it for $190 many years back, it's in great shape

1 Remington 870 wingmaster- two barrels short and long. I love the furniture on this scatter-gun,





and 1 Mossberg 500- I had already shot a friend's 'Berg many times, and found mine brand new in a clearance sale for much less than I usually see them go for, I couldn't pass it up. Glad I bought it too, 100% reliable, and I don't care if I scuff up the plastic stocks. It's my 'beater' but that doesn't mean I abuse it, I take good care of it



here's the only photo I have of all three of 'em, (cropped from a much bigger photo of all my long-guns)




as I was previewing my post, it occurred to me to share a simple idea: in my photo you can see I use an elastic shell-holder on my mossberg. I used to have to adjust it after shooting, as it would eventually slide forward. A stupidly simple solution to this annoyance was to unscrew the buttpad just enough to scootch some of the elastic between the stock and the pad, then re-tighten it back up. Now the elastic carrier stays put
