just some wild guess.What makes you think a 14" barrelled shotgun will spread more than 18"?

Two of the patterns from a Mossberg 590A1 with a barrel worked by Hans Vang. This is Fed H13200 at fifteen yards.

That will do .... nicely. Great to see a perfect defender without any bells and whistles. Every time I see a "tactical" shotgun I just cringe...
what issue do you take with tactical shotguns? I ask because my current bad times rig is identical to Garandimal’s. I’m thinking of picking up a dedicated defensive gun as I don’t want to lose my bird gun to an evidence locker in the admittedly unlikely event I have to use it in a defensive shooting.
I’m eyeing the mossberg 590A1 with the ghost ring and optics rail. I’d be interested to hear what you think the shortcomings of such a rig are as you have real world defensive shotgunning experience.

I'm of that same old school. With my 870 and the 1100 I recently did over for my wife. It's above in post # 65. To me at least, that other stuff is just in the way.That will do .... nicely.

This load - is a terrible thing of beauty, and what I have in my 870 House Broom.
