Hey guys,
I've really been thinking lately that it wouldn't be a bad idea at all to purchase an all purpose pump action shotgun. This shotgun would need to be 12 gauge, and mostly used as a home defense gun, but I would like it to be possible to have it as a decent bird and clay shooting gun with a quick change of barrels and accessories. The only problem is, I know just about nothing about what all is out there. I've got about a $350 dollar budget to play with, so I definitely think I'll be looking to buy used. While I've never owned a shotgun, I've fired several, I just know nothing about what I need to look for in a potential purchase, or if I've budgeted enough. Can anyone give me some good info?
