    about two years ago i got my mossberg 500, no issues. its nice. i prefer the safety on the back.
    remington is going under, no?
    although i'd love to see a tac-13 semi auto mag fed in their version of marinekote.

    Mossberg, the finish on the new remingtons is garbage and overall quality is halfassed

    Used Remington 870 for about $200-300...............Unlike the Mossberg it will last for many many more decades

    We use the Mossberg 590A1. I like it and bought one for myself.

    Remington, Mossberg, Winchester are all good. I prefer the Mossberg.

    Mossberg 500s are great shotguns, if you are afraid of aluminum receiver, the 590 is steel

    I bought a 590A1 with 7 shot tube and bead sight. It’s a great shotgun and I love it. I’m looking at the 500SP with 20” barrel and ghost ring sight system for throwing slugs 100 yards down range to hit steel. I also saw a regular 590 with a ghost ring sight system too. The 870 has a classic looks but I heard Remington’s quality control is going down so I figured I would ask here.

    870 of course. Mossberg always reminded me of the gun you bought because they were sold out of the Remington's.

    I prefer the Mossberg, have a lot more of them (in various forms) than 870s.
