I like Winchester 1300 Defenders personally. If you find a used one, buy it! The design has gone to turkey and is now the XSP or something. I think the Chinese knocked them off under the Stevens brand. They're the best shotgun ever built if you ask me. I do have a Mossberg 590A1 ready for action. No firsthand experience with the he Maverick 88, but Mossberg makes a fine shotgun.
Guns. That's what's happening.

The 1300 was a very nice gun. I got to shoot one quite a bit back when they still had skeet shooting off the fantail on cruise ships and was very impressed.joegoat wrote: ↑30 May 2023, 17:34I like Winchester 1300 Defenders personally.

I can't comment on how the current version of the design performs.

I need a 20 gauge auto for waterfowl and dove. A Monty, maybe, if I can find a good deal.
