I might be in the market for a shotgun soon... nothing super special, just a general use 12 gauge for range fun, occassional 3 gun, and possible home defense (with the right loads, would probably be preferable to a rifle or pistol in my apartment).
The problem is (blasphemy, I know ) that I have never owned a shotgun, and know very little about them.
In the link above is a shottie that I think would serve me well for my intended use.
-says it can fire 2 3/4 and 3" shells... I'd fire mostly the former, but having the capability to use the later would be nice... are all guns with 3" chambers like this?
-18" barrel... good for moving indoors
-7 shell capacity... this pretty high, right?
First, am I headed in the right direction?
Second, with shotguns in general: How does choke work? This add makes no mention of it. Thanks.
