remington 870 with rem chokes. I like 28 inch. Are they pretty? no
For pump shotguns I have a few old ithaca model 37;s, rem wingmasters, win model 12 plus sxs's, ou's and 4 semi autos.. I like them better than a new 870 but for first time buyer and only shotgun , with replaceable chokes, cant beat them.
My second shotgun at age 16 was the 870 and shot trap, all upland, waterfowl, squirrels. turkeys and bought rifled barrel and shot a lot of deer with it.Never had an issue in over 30 years after 1000's and 1000's of rounds from number 7 1/2, 3inch duck, 2's bb's , slugs, buckshot etc
probably find good used for around $200 and use extra money for a quality after market waterfowl chokes and a turkey choke
