Funny thing is I never shoot shotguns lol like at all
reckon it's the lords way of saying it time to get on of them Walmart specials I keep seeing lol
a word on shotguns
don't buy turkish guns just because of cost , most have no standards or parts other than maybe choke tubes , they are basically disposable guns if you break it there are not parts to order or scab off other guns , they change the models and who imported them with what config often.
a Mossberg Maverik 88 would be a better choice at about 250 because they have stayed the same and most of the parts of Mossberg 500 compatible
a 500 or 870 used is great if you can find them or even buying a new 500 about 320 dollars for the basic 26 inch barrel field gun.
shorter barrels are easier to carry and your not giving up much if any velocity.
unfortunately many manufactures don't do choke tubes in shorter barrels 18-24 inches
choke tubes are nice , very nice they let your one gun do a bunch of different things , shoot different loads
if I had to pick just one choke full would be it and it was common for most every farmer around here to have a full choke barrel shotgun back before choke tubes were common.
not all choke tubes are the same , the extended tubes just seem to make a nicer pattern , which makes sense since you got a longer distance to change the constriction. you don't really know what your gun with your ammo and that choke will do until you pattern it but there are enough videos out there of chokes with different loads you can get an idea.
shooting clay can get addictive
