I've been interested in buying a 12 gauge pump for a while now. As a young guy on a budget, I have been looking at the Maverick 88. I really would like a shotgun that can do everything (trap/skeet, slugs, home defense). I was thinking about buying the Maverick 88 Field with the 28" barrel. Because the 88 takes Mossberg parts, I was thinking I could buy the 18.5" HD barrel and a rifled barrel for slugs separately. As an alternative, I also checked out the H&R Pardner Pump. The only problem I have with it is that the Pardner doesn't readily accept the 870 barrels, but the Pardner is (slightly) cheaper. Comments/opinions appreciated!
P.S. my local Wal-Mart sells the 88 for $177 and the Pardner for $159
P.P.S. What's your opinion on using the Pardner and 88 for hunting?
