Got a Maverick 88 in 12 guage
a Columbia single barrel in 12 guage
an Ithaca 37 in 12 guage
an old browing single barrel in 12 guage
a Remington Baikal double barrel (19") in 20 guage
a Ruger Judge revolver in .410 bore
2 Pardner single barrels in 12 guage
one of those Rossi interchangeable deals in .410 bore
an antique Springfield 947 in .410 bore
and my pride and joy: a Remington 870 Wingmaster. It's one-of-a-kind ordered in 1973 for my grandad who was a local champion shotgunner. This thing has a 40" barrel thats choked back a little over 4 inches with a 3 1/2 inch magnum chamber. I've personally put over two thousand rounds through it not counting the countless shots the old man slung, and it still moves as slick as can be. there's really no range to this old pump...In these mountains, if you can see it then you can hit it --- not to brag, of course

Got only one: Remmie 870 Marine. Bought it at a Police sale. At the time it was pristine; like it had never been fired; would not trade it for any other!

Mossberg 500's, both with 18" barrels.

One has rifle sights and wooden stock while the other has a synthetic stock with pistol grip, and heat shield.

One is for business and other is for looks.

At this time I have:

Semi-autos:
1. Saiga 12 19" bbl, 12 ga 2.75 & 3.0", jacked up like an EBR
2. NEF Excel Auto 5 Turkey 21" bbl, 12 ga 2.75 & 3.0"
3. Win 1400 26" bbl, vent rib, 20 ga 2.75" only

Single Shots/Combo Guns:
4. Baikal/Spartan SPR94 12 ga 2.75 & 3.0"
5. Savage 24F 20 ga 2.75 & 3.0"
6. NEF Survivor .410 bore 2.75 & 3.0"

I also have a gun which is a rifle, not a shotgun, but it's based on a shotgun - a Remington 1187 Sportsman's Deer rifle, semi-auto, 12 ga slug gun, 2.75 & 3.0"

No pumps any more, oddly enough, and no 3.5" mag guns at present.

Only other shotguns I kind of want are:
1. Mossberg 930 SPX, 12 ga.
2. A side by side coach gun in 20 ga or 28 ga - but not a true coach gun - I want internal hammers, not external.

As you can see, I have a thing for semi-auto 12 gauges - the reduction of recoil being the main reason.
