So I put the deposit for a 590

[usr1987]

Today I put the deposit for a 590. Its on sale at Turners and decided its not worth spending another 300 for the 590A1. This would be my first shotgun. Any thoughts or recommendations? I am considering a tube extension for up to 9-12 shots!

My recommendation would be to buy only ammo for now so you can practice with it, don't change the shotgun yet. Once you have shot a lot, you'll find out what you like/don't like about the shotgun and buy the necessary accessories to upgrade it.

Ammo and a side saddle for sure.
Practice practice practice with a variety of loads as well.

buy lots of ammo before July 1st, so you can practice a lot!!

Sheesh.... it's not like ammo is going away on 1-July.

I anticipated getting one, and already have 250 rds on hand, but will try to have 500 and 100 for practice!

need more ammo:-)

No ammo is not going away! but it will cost a little more and they will track every purchase you make, I shoot 400 or so rounds a month at tournaments, but I reload.

[b]Pretty much point and shoot and say goodbye to anything in its path of travel.b][/ Extra ammo is for the zombie apocalypse!

At HD distances the pattern is small, practice is required to put the pattern on target as well as learn the function and feel of the weapon.
The more you practice, the more proficient you become.

Remington 870, Mossberg 500 or 590; all good to go.

I highly recommend the two day defensive shotgun class at Front Sight. I have some certificates for that class that I will supply FREE to you or any member of this forum. PM me for further details.

Guys, it will be my first own shotgun, but I did shoot a few!

[03fatboy]

Enjoy it. They are high on the fun factor!

What if the Zombie morph into flying Zombies, real fast flying Zombies? Then you will need to practice hitting flying targets.....that's where the extra ammo pays off
