    Well, looks like I may hunt this spring...

    All I have for a shotgun is a rusty(don't ask) mossberg 500. Looking to get into some quail, turkey and maybe duck. Soo...semi vs pump? Budget is about $600. I've started to look and see the CZ 712, and Mossberg flex. I really don't know anything about shotguns so please help me out!!

    Get a maverick and spend the rest of the money on ammo.

        You can get an EAA Girsan MC312 Benelli SBE2 cline for around $450 out the door. Shoots 3.5" shells and everything smaller. It's great for the price. There is no duck or quail hunting in spring but turkey is right around the corner.

          Beretta A300 Outlander will do the job and fit your budget.

            Your Mossberg 500 should work, if it has chokes.

            If not, I just sold a NIB Mossberg 930 at a gun show for $450. You can find something like that for the same, or close to the same, price.

              I've used this for years on just about everything you can sling lead at.



              It's basically a 500 with the ability to shoot 3 1/2"

              ETA: Basically like Sigstroker said above, buy a barrel for that 500 with removable chokes. Don't worry about the rust, the receiver is aluminum anyways.

                Agree with a used Beretta A300. Mossberg pump will work.

                  CZ 712 G2 wouldn't be a bad choice.

                          The new Remington 870's are out and they look pretty decent. The ones I saw were around $420.

                            You can walk around with a gun for sale, same as any other gun show.
