Semi auto shotguns... whats your favorite?

[Lebowski]

Somewhat new to the shotgun world. Bought a new 870 last winter and even though I've only been able to take it out and shoot it once (local range doesn't allow shotguns ) I really want a semi-auto high capacity one. No real reason other than why the hell not?


What are some of your favorite semi-auto shotguns worth looking at?

 

[M67]

I have a Saiga 12 and it is a very very fun gun. 10rd mags, 12 and 20 rd drums.......ohhhhh yeeeeaaaahhh

I still think a Benelli M2 tactical with a regular stock would be fun too though

 

[Leadeye]

Winchester 97 can be slam fired and it has classic looks, magazines can be extended, costs are usually low. For straight up combat shotgun it hard to beat a High Standard 10B.

I love my 1100

 

[Mark 1911]

I have two Model 11-87s. One is the police model, the other is the special purpose I have set up with a rifled slug barrel for deer hunting. Both great guns, never a jam or misfire in either one.

VEPR-12.

I think that Benelli makes the best semi auto shotgun any money can buy!

Mossberg 930 SPX.

I have the Benelli M2 and its great. Holds a bunch too. If you have a big budget then get the M4 but you can save about $700 with the M2

Well I have a HK 512 limited production shotgun that holds 7 rounds of buckshot and has a muzzle diverter for oval shot patterns. The 512 has beautiful wooden stock and fore end even tho it was developed for law enforcement. The action was manufactured for H&K by Franchi. Unfortunately not many were imported in the 80s.

I've fallen in love with my stoeger 3000. However, my budget doesn't allow for a benelli.

 

[Dead Duck]

I like SPAS 15s.





Really-
You can't go wrong with Remington 1187 Police models.
Price, reliability, parts and accessories are available. And it's still a fun gun to shoot.

 

[Grease]

FN SLP all day long!

 

[vitamink]

Saiga or Vepr 12 hands down. End the thread.

 

[oldpink]

SPAS12

I don't understand why any range wouldn't allow shotguns? Rifle calibers, I understand. But shotguns?

Yes, Saiga 12 are a blast - if you have somewhere to shoot them for fun. As such, mine spent most of it's time collecting dust so I got rid of it. But if you want a hi cap. melon blaster, that's the way to go.
I'll stick with my Beretta 391's and 400 for clays.

 

[Fordtough25]

Love my 1100 as well. But for a high capacity type those 930spx are slick and of course a vepr if you want the ultimate boom stick.

 

[KLB]

I have 2 930's.........love-em

I love mine as well. I have one of the Walmart version.

Speaking of 930s
