Michael, first, the Mossberg -- durable, reliable, and the tang mounted safety is the easiest to use. In 16 years I sold a lot of Mossbergs, and other than the plastic safety breaking, I fixed 1. Winchesters were very break prone, with Remington 870s just behind Mossberg.
Barrel, IMHO rifling in the barrel is not necessary for shots inside 75yds.
If you are going to use a shotgun inside the house -- barrel length is important. 18" with rifle sights or ghost ring will cover all of the bases.
Special barrels -- Vang is the best -- mine will Keep all 9 00 buck in 6" at 25 yds. Federal H132.
Last, if used for a house gun, have a set of Wolf Ears hanging on the gun. Unless you have extensive training and then only as a last resort, should you try to clear your house yourself. Wear a vest if you are going to attempt to clear a house. George
