Your favorite shotguns

I have a couple of personal favorites and both are semi-autos. I got away from pump action shotguns, when I was in my 20s and never looked back. :sneaky:

I like my Remington Versa Max for goose hunting. I use a Patternmaster Extended Range choke tube, combined with some Kent Fast Steel BBs, in 3 1/2" at 1550 fps and it allows me to drop geese at 60+ yards. :cool:

My newest favorite, doesn't have any field experience....yet. However, it certainly has proved itself at the sporting clay shoots. (y)
Mossberg 940 JM Pro with a 9+1 capacity and a 22" barrel.

I love shotguns. I grew up tagging along with the men of the family, rabbit hunting behind a pack of beagles. And turkey hunting the Ozark mountains. My dad was a Browning Auto Five guy, and he also had an Ithaca SKB SxS that he used to good effect on rabbit, dove, crows, and quail. So naturally, a Belgian Browning Auto Five is one of my favorite shotguns. Here is my 1967 20 gauge...



This little 1968 Beretta SxS 20 gauge is a favorite game gun. It is simply magical...



There are others, an old 870 Wingmaster worn nearly silver from use. A Beretta O/U that makes me seem to be a much better wingshooter than I am. And some more that I keep around. Like this lean, mean Benelli M1 Tactical. I call it my "Thug gun." It lacks class, but it is brutally effective.





With all that said, if I had to pick an all-time favorite for all chores, I would be forced to choose my old H&K Benelli M1S90 camo turkey gun. This is an old friend that has traveled many, many miles throughout the Ozark mountains, hunting all sorts of critters. I nicknamed this shotgun "Havoc" because when it is time, this thing wrecks anything I cut it loose on. Rabbits, squirrels, doves, ducks, crows, turkeys, raccoons, opossums, armadillos, skunks, feral cats, fox, coyote, bobcat, hogs, and one deer have all fallen to this old, comforting shotgun. Dust, dirt, forest duff, rain, snow, ice, freezing temperatures, heat- nothing has stopped this gun from functioning, and it has never failed me.

I have that very same pattern on my JM 940 - it's been perfect so far. I haven't shot really light loads yet, that is coming soon. Good luck!
