I've got a shotgun itch and one of these is gonna come home to papa. I like all three, but I haven't handled the first two. What do you shooty boys like?

I always get warm and tingly when I see an SXS shotgun. Then again, "grandma, what big tacticools you have!"

Yeah, I like all 3 but I can only choose one for now. I'd love to feel the SXP before I commit.

I like the stoeger. It's sort of a neo-retro evolution of the old Western coach gun. Pretty cool shotty. Not the most practical, but you already have practical taken care of.

Stoeger for the interesting/ coolness factor. The 887 is an overly fancy/ tacticool 870. The winnie looks funny, like a toy.

Ray is violently anti-Mossberg.

I've got a soft spot for a double barrel side by side - all because of a Russian cartoon hunting dog. The Remmy is nice, but you already have a tacticool Remington. the Winchester looks "blah". my useless vote: get the Stoeger.

Oh well if you already have a tactical Remington, I will also vote for the Stoeger.

I'm really thinking Stoeger since I already have a tacticool pump. But I am a big Remmy fan. I also want a Winchester! I'm in trouble here.

how about none? They are all stupid and ridiculous

Then don't buy one. But don't piss in someone else's beer.

This should satisfy your Remmy fix. A well maintained autoloader is no less reliable than a pump with game or home defense loads. I have the 22" barrel from the Tac4 on my 1100 Classic Trap. I keep it clean and oiled, and it has never failed me with a hunting load of buck or bird.

Between the 3, another vote for the SxS. The other 2 don't really do anything that your 870 doesn't already do well, and while a "tactical" SxS is kind of silly, I always wanted to try that gun :icon_lol:

That's the thing, i've always wanted a double gun but i really don't need it. I WANT IT! And unlike another poster here, whom i will not name, it's a good choice as a SECONDARY home defense gun. And It'll be fun to shoot!

A SxS is a viable HD gun. I don't particulary care for the Tactical Double, but hey, it's your money.

No its a horrible choice of a home defense gun. Your limiting yourself to two rounds, bad idea.

 

I'd rather see you use that kelcrap instead of a SxS for home defense

I had the stoeger for about 2 weeks and had nothing but problems with it. Would only fire off of one chamber, sent it to stoeger they sent it back saying nothing was wrong with it. Test fired it both rounds fired at the same time then went back to only firing one chamber. Mine might of been a lemon but I wouldn't recommend one.

Why is it that every purchase I make or I might make you have to crap on it? Cx4, Keltec, charter arms (justified), and this doube gun?

 

Dude, I don't do it to anything you buy. What is your effing deal?

 

And to answer your question, a SxS is a viable home defense option! It took 2 rounds for the guy in Texas to drop 2 home invaders and it took 2 rounds for the Coastie in NYC to drop 3 crooks. How's that for a little proof for ya!

Pete, post the link to the video. I can't see it.

Thanks Pete, hopefully Matt will watch that video and wisen up.

 

No thanks Ed, i do appreciate the offer though.

Well, ordered the double gun but it's down to either the 887 or Stoeger. We'll see when I hold'er if I want the double or the tacticool plastic monster!
