Best shotguns for the money

[leVieux]

yea I just got a raise and have some money to burn on a few guns wanted options to see what out there atm

Look for a good used police trade-in Remington 870. Durable, reliable, easy to fix, unlimited available mods.

The PoPo don’t put nearly as many rounds through them as most hunters do.

Good Luck !

Mossberg 500 if you like a top tang safety like I do. Maverick 88 if you prefer a crossbolt trigger safety. Other barrels will interchange between these. As a general rule, barrels for the Rems will cost more than the same for a Mossberg.

If you like the crossbolt safety, the Rem 870 would be your next more expensive option. (Read previous posts regarding 870 quality issues over the years.) GT often has deals on both used Rems and Mossbergs.

Like someone here stated, you can get two barrel sets including a "bird" barrel with interchangeable chokes and either an 18" defense or "riot" barrel, or a rifle sighted deer/hog barrel. These are available for around $500.

Remington 870 Tactical. Great option for the money and fun to shoot.

Best shotgun for the money in my opinion is the Texas assembled Maverick 88 from Mossberg.

An overlooked shotgun I feel.

Maverick 88 - Security/Field Combo

Maverick 88: the utility player of pump-action shotguns. Affordable and reliable, these diverse models are equally up to task, from combing through the woods to handling home security duty.

$293 list if you can find one.

police trade in shotguns, as I'm sure everyone here has already said.

I used my Remington 870 loaded with 00 Buckshot on small hogs along with my Mossberg 835 both12 Gauge. They worked fine on hogs 150 pounds and less.

a high capacity auto with a plug for hunting is gonna be your best bet for a do-all shotgun. The mossberg 940 JM pro is kinda cool

I got one of these about 12 years ago. It was used during a home defense class which used more shells in a few hours than it has used in the years since.

Mav 88 in 20 & 12 ga. works fine, many barrel styles interchangeable (mossy built in Tx with some Mex steel). great for birds, slugs or #4 for hogs close. Long range (>50 yds) hunting, nope.
