Okay, I know that I'll get some good feedback here. We just finished moving about three weeks ago (we were able to find and purchase an older home that we simply love), and during all the packing/unpacking - we of course had to deal with my pistols and ammo. No problems.
However, I am once again thinking about home protection, since not too far from our neighborhood, is a fairly large area/neighborhood that is more drepressed economically - and likely has some crime problems. Good thing is that the Eastside Police Station is in the area also - actually not sure if that's a good thing, or a bad thing.
However, after discussing it with my wife, I'm once again looking at home defense. This time, not a handgun, but rather a shotgun. Specifically (at least at the moment), I'm interested in the Remington 870 Tactical - 12 gauge. I've read many reviews, but also wanted to see if there are any first hand reviews from the folks here - or suggestions/reviews on other shotguns.
I have also looked at the Model 887, which is based on the 870.
Let er rip. I'm anxious to get the feedback.
