I got a steal of a deal from a buddy on my first shotgun... I like it, but after lots of thought on my use of it... it doesn't fit correctly into my "arsenal".
It is a very nice Mossberg Mdl 835 in Woodland Camo with a full choke. I know it's a great turkey gun... but I don't hunt turkeys. Plus the inability to shoot slugs is a real downside.
I'm looking primarily for a nice weapon that is capable of Home Defense, but equally suitable or adapted to shooting clays for fun. (Not for competition, I know you should have a dedicated gun for that...) But how better to prepare yourself for HD than shooting rapidly moving small targets. (Other than 3 gun which I want to do as well).
Hence, I have two big questions.
What should I expect to get out of my 835???
What should I get to replace it???
I've thought of the 500/590 series... but there are alot of others out there...
I'm definitely looking at trading and not just buying another one... I'd love to just buy a new one, but financially I can't justify it. Especially when I'll barely use the 835...
Help me out THR!!!
