    I think I am going to persue the Maverick 88 8-shot Sercruity Model. Most gun stores have them for $199.99. Almost all parts from a mossberg 500 will fit these so they can be accersorized if you want to.

    After doing some research I chose the 20'' bbl. 8 shots would be plenty for a home defense and I would not have to spend extra money on getting a side saddle for extra shells. My plan is to add sling mount and a sling, 00 buckshot and thats it. The only other thing I might do is a tri rail to throw a light on it. Other that it will sit in and probably only get used every now and then.

    the 500/590 mossbergs are awesome. Got a couple o them..

    Got a 930 spx as well.

    Gonna get me one of them Benelli m4 next.
    how do you like the 930?

    OP,
    one issue you need to resolve with the 870/500 choice is the location of the safety. some like the remington safety on the trigger guard. some prefer the safety on the top like the mossberg (like me). otherwise, there isn't a gnat's ass difference between them--if you decide to go with a pump.

    I went ahead and got the Maverick 88 18.5 BBL model at Sports Authority in Greeley. Came out to $218.02 with tax and a box of 5 00 Buckshot. Think it was a pretty decent deal.

    In case YOU didnt notice, (and Im sure you didnt due to lack of search) there are literally HUNDREDS of threads asking the SAME thing you did.

    Youre right, this is the internet, which means the information is plentiful, however that information is concealed under the "SEARCH" button.

    Youre thread was vague and lacked proper grammar or any kind of agenda excluding you wanted it for HD, and you expect people to help you and give you any kind of intellectual answer when you cant even take the time to write out a proffesional title or post.

    Yes I have asked opinions, after I did research for myself and went through an elimination process, that was AFTER I decided I wanted the gun for in the first place...

    Your thread is nothing new, I have seen it alot, in fact I see it on a weekly basis, over and over. Not only that but your response also is nothing new.

    Trey searching man. You will be amazed at the information thats out there if you put in a little work
