Myself, I have a Mossy 500A. I have fed about 500 shells through it in the last year, and have yet to have a hiccup or problem of any kind. I bought it used, at a show over in Bristol. It had a 30" vented barrel on it at the time, but I swapped it out for a shorter rifled barrel. It was dirty, filthy even, and I picked it up cheap. But, after tearing it down, and a thorough cleaning; it was fit for duty. I have no doubt that it would get the job done. That being said, I kind of like the sound a 12 gauge makes.... it is a very DISTINCTIVE sound...... and if you are somewhere you are not supposed to be, it is dark, and you are not the one that made that sound..... you KNOW it is GAME OVER for your sorry ass!
