Tactical (Home Defense) Shotgun Selection

[allingeneral]

Anyone have a shotgun that they use for home defense? I'm going to be getting one fairly soon and trying to decide what to get. Thinking about a Remington 870 Tactical (black synthetic with magazine extension - maybe with a folding stock)

What say you?

[Moccasin]

I'm not big on folding stocks but that's a personal preference. I like the extended magazine on the 870. I was looking at getting one of these. NEF Pardner Pump Protector.

This is what I keep by the bed. It's a Mossberg 500 Persuader with a few added accessories

Mmmm...yeah, I like that one. What kind of flashlight do you have mounted there?

I'm not big on a folding stock other than the fact that it is easier to find it a place to live in the house. If I were going to use it outside, I would definitely opt for a regular solid stock.

That's a Streamlight TLR-1 with a tube mount bracket. I had to use the Dremel to trim it down a wee bit, since it's made to fit on a longer tube (mine's only a 5 + 1 capacity)

I like to check out people's gear and see if I carry the products that folks have on their setups. It looks like I do carry the TLR-1. Got 26 of them in stock, currently. Not sure how my price compares to what you paid for yours...those are things that I like to know as well

Just don't tell me if I paid too much

Yeah, that's pretty bad-ass

Saiga

[SnakeEater]

hodrige nice Saiga is it the 12? I like the Breaching muzzle break.

I used to have a Reminton 870 Marine Magnum with Knoxx recoil system and breaching muzzle break. only thing I didn't like about it is it was all Stainless Steel.

But I would like to get another, maybe one day.

I plan on gettin an 18.5'' barrel for my maverick 88 soon and possibly a tube extender. Should make for great home defense.



Anyone breaks in and hears the "chick chunk" is probably gonna take off anyway

You can see my 870 somewhat in this pic:

I've been talking to a guy today who wants to buy a new 18.5" barrel for his Mossberg 500. He asked if the one I have in stock will fit it. I believe the one I have is for the Maverick 88. I have determined that the stocks for these two shotguns are interchangeable, but what about the barrels?

I can't keep up with what fits what...too many items. Anyone know the answer to this one?

[OakRidgeStars]

The 90015 barrel above is for the Mossberg 500, according to the chart on Mossberg's website. I don't know if it's interchangeable, but if he wants it for a 500, then it should fit just fine.

I'm almost positive that barrels advertised to fit the maverick 88 fit the 500 and vise versa.

[moss20]

I just got a mossberg 500 persuader/cruiser in 20ga. to keep in my truck since I'm on the road alot. With a 18.5 inch barrel and a pistol grip it is real easy to handle.

6 shot capacity for #2 buck or hollow-point slugs.

hodridge:
Very nice.
Just got a Saiga 12 myself a few weeks ago and added a repro Russian flash hider/brake, a 12-round Surefire mag, and a 5 round butt cuff for home defense.
