Not the prettiest, not the most tacticool, but that's a lot of firepower for $200. I have zero need for another shotgun, but I'm considering buying one just for when my son is old enough to move out on his own.

They make one with ghost ring sights and a heat shield on the barrel for a few dollars more too.

if you already have a shotgun why do you need a home defense gun for under $200? you already have at least one shotgun. just curious.

I would probably wait and catch a used Remington or Mossberg for a bargain. Much easier to customize. Plus it sounds like you aren't in any hurry... Assuming your son isn't moving out anytime soon that is...

Ummmm I'm pretty sure the OP is posting this for anyone ELSE that might need/want a home defense shotgun.

Yup, reading comprehension these days

I would suggest an h&r pardner 12 gauge. You can find those for just a bit over $200 at gander mountain or even Dick's Sporting goods. it is just a clone of the 870 and I believe all 870 parts are interchangeable.

I don't need one. I'm pointing out the deal if anyone else needs one. As I said in my original post: I have zero need for another shotgun, but I'm considering buying one just for when my son is old enough to move out on his own.

I picked up a used MAVRICK 12 gauge shotgun for $50, so just look around & you'll find a good deal

I think you probably find a Mossy 500 or Maverick 88 (mossy 500 with cross bolt safety) for darn near 200.

Catfish aren't llamas, even on Sundays. That's why I never wear one blue sock on my left hand and one red one on my right ear when I'm cutting my apple sauce. It'll bend your cigarette case!*

*at this point, I'm just curious who's paying attention.

Joe Biden recommends a double barrel shotgun.

Dave recommends duct tape over old double barrel's mouth!

We understand. You try to be a good neighbor and post helpful information for those who may need a serviceable shotgun on a budget and, well, you get what you got.

If you're in the Martinsville area, next week we are selling IAC Hawk 981R 12ga. pump shotguns for $189.99 at Rural King.

Give us a call for sale dates if interested. From what I understand they are Remington 870 internals. 18.5" barrel, rail on receiver with open sights, synthetic stock and forend.

That sound pretty nice. I may go a little ways outta my way to pick one of those up. I can always sell it to a friend who needs a good home defense gun.

I am.......that is why I posted the 'reading comprehension' bit. I get a good chuckle on this site quite frequently. I do like Llamas and applesauce, but I don't smoke around them.

I misunderstood... I thought he was saying he needed one for under $200. MY BAD

Note the question mark at the end of OP's title.

This, my friends, is why punctuation is important.

Some guy bought a new mossberg 20ga 18" barrell this weekend @ LGS and let me shoot it in their range. He had slugs for it. I'd never shot a 20 ga before and I loved it. I don't need one but might get one for fun and to hang above bed. I would'nt use slugs inside but from close distances i would think taking a bean bag round would have me wondering if I was seeing "the light".
