None yet, although I'd very much like to change that because I think they're the best short-range weapons for most purposes.

When I do get a shottie, I probably won't spend a lot of money on it. It'll probably be something like a Mossberg 590A1. If I wanted to get more expensive, it would likely be a Remington 870 set up by Wilson Combat.

Only one (no more allowed by law) a SbS double trigger Merkel of East German manufacture. Hold my ground against anyone in sporting clays, despite 1/2 & full choke.

Wow, this old thread just keeps going....I only own two:

1) Mossberg 500 12ga w/ 18.5" barrel that sees HD duty or if a buddy wants to join me at trap or huntin I'll slap on the 28" barrel (know it's not the best but it works)

2) Remington 1100 Classic Trap 12ga that gets used for both trap and huntin.

Man I have shotgun envy now. I want your 16gauge, my stupid brother inherited my dads and he doesn't even use it. I did get the side by side 12 gauge, but I miss the 16.
