Go with the 870.

Here is what I did:

20" Barrel with sights and screw in chokes. I went with this one because I could see myself hunting with it.

+2 extension. I did this so the spring would not be so compressed. I load 4 rounds in the gun, empty camber, safety off, trigger pulled

Light. I have a Surfire G2 on mine.

No weirdo stocks or anything. I like the light. Its there if I need it, if not don't turn it on. Its one of those "Better to have and not need" kind of things. It will set you back about 50bucks when its all said and done.

I also have a 4 shot side saddle on mine with 3 slugs and one 00 buck. The gun is loaded with #1 buck.(Tacstar model)

I live out some and can foresee me needing to go outside also, thats why I have the sidesaddle with the extra rounds.

Last but not least. Practice with it and do a pattern check. Be proficient with the gun and ensure everyone in the house is also.

PS I would not go with all those Geewhiz tacitcool doodads like pistol grips for and aft, 12 shot extenders. All that stuff will fail or make the gun unshootable.
