All my shotguns are O/U or SxS and I want to get a home defense shotgun but I have a certain price cap I'm allowed to spend (200-225). I know there's not much to choose with that criteria but there are two I looked at that could fit the bill and I need some opinions on it. The first one is a Mossberg/Maverick 88 Security Pump 12ga and the second is the Savage/Stevens M350 Tactical 12ga pump. The 88 is basically a "cheaper" Mossberg 500 and the M350 is a Ithaca 37 clone with the bottom eject. Both seem solid and action is decent but which one these two has a better track record? I'm kinda leaning on the 350 because it has a ghost ring rear sight and a hi viz front post sight. The 88 is a contender with it's proven Mossy design and function and adaptable to most aftermarket accessories. What do you all think? I've narrowed my search to these two options. Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
