I have a like new Winchester 1300 for sale. Only has one round through it. I'd let it go for $250.00. PM me.
You can't fix stupid.

 :chuckle:  nah, I dont think so

870 if you have th spare $$$ (great all around shotty)

Mossberg 500 if $$$ is an issue (simple, gets the job done)

Mossberg 500 or the 535.  Have shot both and love them.  Hate the new coatings on the Remingtons, seems to be a rust magnet and scratch easily. Other than that 870's are good, but I don't think I will ever buy one.

I have an 870 and bought a nova went and shot it a couple of times and sold it i didnt like that action was about 1 1/2 to 2 inches longer compared to the 870.  :twocents:

Mossberg for me my first was a bolt action 410. Hunted dove, quail, rabbits and coyotes through my youth and high school. Now I have an 835 and like it as well, and made in the USA. Most important is how it feels to you and how you feel with it in your hands!

My wife's 870 is sturdy, but a little heavy.  My winchester 1300 is my favorite by far. A little lighter, very smooth action, and not too many parts to malfunction...mine never has.  I've shot the Nova and wasn't impressed.  Felt 'loose'.

Browning BPS..... :rolleyes:
Remington 870
Benelli nova
Check the pawn shops, they should have all have these to fondle and ponder, but whatever one you pick, make sure it fits you/shoulders good for your size.
More important than what brand/model,
IF IT DONT FIT YOU WONT HIT
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.
