    Have a pump, should I get a semi?

    I already have a pump shotgun that I really like but it's not as fast as a semi so I'm wondering if I should get a semi auto shotgun.

    I'm not one to buy another gun just to own more guns so I need to make sure it's a smart move.

    It would be used only for shooting games such as 3-gun. My current "fun shotgun" is the winchester defender. It's pretty fun.

    What do you guys think? I was thinking of something like the Mossberg 930 home defense model.

    Thanks,

      The 930 is a good gun for a good price. So if you want a semi for 3 gun and/or home defense I say go for it.

        More guns is better than less guns!

            Your pump should be fine for HD or 3-gun. I have a Defender from the 80's.

            I'd suggest the only reason you would need a semi is for hunting. You need to be quick for wingshooting.

              I have a Defender from the 80's also.Plus a Remington 1100 semi and whole bunch more shotguns.... I am not really sure anyone can have too many shot guns..

                smitty, do you think you'll gain more of an edge in competition if you get a semi?

                    How is this even a question? Benelli M4 for the win!

                      Yes I have two pumps for HD and A semi I use for shooting clays. You can never have too many shotguns.

                        The 930 is a great shotgun for the price. Nothing in it's price range can touch it.

                            If you want it for 3-gun, then get a Moss 930 JM Pro, or Rem 1100, Benelli M1 or M2

                            Also look into the Remington Versamax...though thats pretty new so all the 3-gun parts are just coming out

                              I'm making the switch to semi as well.
