    Semi-auto for Under $1k?

    I have been looking into getting a shotgun for recreational shooting (trap/skeet/sporting clays) but would also like something I can use for HD.

    My Question is, is there a Semi-auto with two barrels (one 18" HD and one 26"/28" Field) that is around $1000 all-in? I'd love to hear what my options might be, and if you guys can point me to any links or websites to help look things over I would be very grateful.

    Thanks-
    Ruger 10/22 (22cal)
    Sig SP2022 (9mm)
    Beretta 92 (9mm)
    Steyr M9-A1 (9mm)
    M1a Scout (308cal)

    Dear Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms,
    Thanks for the idea!

    There is a semi auto at big 5 for like 700 only comes with one barrel though.

      I would focus on getting what you want for a clays gun, then buy a cheap throw around pump HD gun. You can probably get both guns for 1000 if you look around and buy used.

        Remington 1100 have seen them go for around $500 then get a second barrel?

            For that much, you may as well go with a pump action like everyone else stated.

            On a side note, the Remington 870 has Magpul furniture available now that allows the shooter to change up the comb, which is a pretty nice feature for clay busting since some folks prefer to change the POI a little higher than the front sight bead.

              I got my Winchester SX-3 for $720. Great Shotgun. It would certainly be on my list. I agree with having a semi-auto for hunting/recreation, and a pump for Home Defense.

                The words cheap, semi auto, and reliable don't go together imo. Buy a used shotgun is the way to go if $ is of concern.

                    Ive been looking at the Beretta A300 Outlander for a sporting clays gun... fits the bill and leave room for a pump HD gun.

                      Well, which would be a better semi-auto the Mossberg 930 or the Beretta A300? They're both around the same price, but I could buy an 18" barrel for the Mossberg something I can't seem to find for the Beretta.

                        My vote is to get two shotguns...

                        My money is on the A300 Outlander for being a better gun for clays and cost around $680 and comes with 3 adjustable chokes.

                        I have a 500 and while swapping barrels isnt a big deal, I prefer a semi for clays and a pump for HD.

                          The Mossberg I listed comes with the extra 18.5" barrel.

                          *Fixed my earlier post. For some reason, the pic and link in my post didn't show.

                            This would be a nice option for you.
