Wanting to buy new shotgun

[teal101]

If you're in East Wenatchee Hooked on Toys, High Mountain Hunting, One shot, and Bi-mart all have good guns.

I just got a Benelli SBE II from High Mountain.  I ordered a 12/26 and they got me a 12/28.  A little pissed about that, but I kept it.  I only went with a 26" barrel to reduce front end weight, but the benelli 28" is lighter up front than my 26" SX2 so its a win for me in the end.

 A SBE is the only way to go!

but for those who dont have the money, there are great values out there..plus not everyone needs a gun that nice for how much they hunt.. like I hunt with a  mossberg maverick model 88, probably the cheapest pump shotgun you can buy!

The way I figure it, if your gonna buy a gun.... why not save a little longer and buy the best. I personally own 2 SBE's and 2 SBE II's. I also own remingtons, Mossbergs, Brownings, and a Beretta. But I only hunt with my SBE's. Yes, you can say I believe they are bar none, the best! Thats just my

Don't forget to keep in mind the amount shooting you may do with gun you choose. If you plan on shooting it for more than hunting, ie: trap, skeet, or sporting clays, save a little more money and get a gun that can handle the numbers you may plan to put through it.

Christmas Present

Went to Cabela's in Lacey and they had the 887 Nitro Mag in the camo. I shouldered it and talked with the guy and it felt awesome! it is lighter than my 870 express with a 26" barrel and the 887 has a 28" barrel. it felt amazing. Think I am going with this one when the price was $449. Dont think you can really beat that.

ya I am very fortuneate! I think part of the payment on it will be a Christmas Present from mom and dad, since a poor college kid doesnt have a whole lot of mulah haha but I am thinking this gun will last me a long, long time compared to my 870 express that looks like it is 25 years old and really worn instead of 5 years old... very dissappointed in it.

I hunt a ton every year. I shoot probably close to 50 ducks a year and as many geese as possible so a little bit more money and a better investment is something I could really use.
