high capacity shotgun?

I am looking to get a pump action shotgun. I looked at mossberg and they only have 10 shot one in the semi-auto. Are Remingtons better as of late? Any other with 7+ rounds?

Only 6+1 but quickly reloads

What are you looking to do that 10 shots from a shot gun wont fix?

The KSG-25 holds 20+1 rounds of 3" shells? That's the highest I can thing of but its not as conventional as you seem to be looking for?

There is a drum fed magazine conversion for the mossburgs.

More than 6-7 rounds in a mag tube means a pretty long barrel, and very muzzle heavy.

So if the gun handles like a 4x4, it's the cool factor having that
full length magazine tube!!!!!

I am looking at a 500/590 over an 870. Is the 870 quality back, since I heard some had some issue from when Freedom Arms owned them. Here at big5 they always have the Maverick 88 for 229-239 on sale with 18.5/26 inch barrels. Are those worth it for the price?

If you need that many shots I'd look into a Mossberg 930jm pro with 5 shot extension. At that point the gun is going to be really long.

Not in the KSG, it's such a compact shotgun that the center of balance is closer to the body, unlike standard shotguns.

Doesn't apply to the KSG-25, that thing is a... strange beast to say the least.

I saw there is the 9 shot Mossberg 590A1. Meets all I need, so might get this soon!

They make an extension tube for the 1100 that increases it to 15 regular rounds or 30 rounds if you shoot the Aguila smaller shot shells.
