I'm looking for a shotgun primarily for home defense, but would also like something for skeet or country doubles. The idea is that the clays would be good practice for me with the HD shotgun. I know no one gun is perfect for everything, but I have a couple of ideas I'd like to run by the experts here.
1) Versamax, either a tactical for HD with a longer barrel for skeet, or a Synthetic with 28" barrel and a shorter barrel for HD
2) Beretta A400 XCEL, with a second, shorter barrel for HD. Or maybe a 1301, if they make a barrel for it long enough for skeet.
3) A pump, such as a Mossberg or Ithaca or Winchester, with both a 28" vent rib and a 18" bead sight barrel.
Are any of these reasonable? Is there a better idea?
Thanks,
Schwarf
