    Used a Benelli M4 in Fallujah and picked one up a couple years ago as a civilian. I love the Benelli and all semi-auto shotguns in general. That being said, they are limited in their use in my opinion and I had cycling issues from time to time. Ended up selling it and went back to the time tested Mossberg 590. I can shoot anything out of that from bird shot to hot slug and 00buck loads. It’s just a lot more versatile in my opinion and, being a pump, has a lot less maintenance and parts to fail.

    Pumps are just as fast as semis (if you speed up the footage). That's my thought

    I have two shotguns. A 590 sp (18.5" and let's be real it's a 500) and a Beretta a300 Ultima patrol, and love them both. I chose the a300 for home defense, I have thrown so many rounds through this thing and it's been stupid reliable, it was easier to shoot while usint a light, much less recoil with slugs and slightly less with 00 buck, and all those add up to let me focus on simply shooting and reloading. I am borderline stupid while waking up so I'll take all the advantages I can get haha.

    I went with a pump. At first, price kept me from the semi autos, but then I decided that pump actions are more fun. They are also a bit of a novelty, running the slide is half the fun!

    Shotguns have been my obsession lately. Just going down the RUclips rabbit hole. lol. So this video was well timed.
    I wanna get a Remington Tac 14 with the wood stocks, SBS it and then put a Chisel Machine side folding stock on it. This is my autism's special interest for the last few days. 😂

    If you search it, a spanish YT channel reposted the Magpul - Costa, Haley 3 hr shotgun handling essentials. Shotguns definitely need practice and training.

    Having used both I gravitate towards a pump action. Especially since I can buy a good pump, gear, and a lot of shells for the price of a decent auto loader. Just get a pump and practice and train with it.

    Love my 20 Gage Rem. 870 with extended Mag tube, and a strong mini flashlight. Loaded with 20 Gage number 3 buck shot I would not feel handicapped, in a home defense situation. Recoil is NO problem.

  • @frankfarmer7706
    @frankfarmer7706 25 дней назад

    In my personal opinion it all depends on the operator of the firearm, but in my preference I would definitely prefer a semi automatic over a pump action shotgun any day, also, i'm a huge fan of shotguns that does not have that ridiculous dust cover where you loading the shells at.

  • @stevetalbottofs236
    @stevetalbottofs236 4 месяца назад

    I've got a Mossberg 590a1 and it is definitely my preference. I carried one in the military and it is absolutely reliable. Training is vital on either platform to be sure. Shortstroking is a problem without sufficient Training. The SGA stock I added soaks up recoil well.

  • @warrenharrison9490
    @warrenharrison9490 4 месяца назад +1

    Finding old Mossberg 500 hunting/bird guns at local shops is a cheap way to get a reliable shottie, one can always upgrade/repair them since everything is still available for them for cheap.

    My go to shotgun for years has been an old M590. Got her setup just how I like it, but recently decided to give the M940 Pro a shot and it's a good reliable gun but for whatever reason I runnthe M590 faster handle the recoil better. With an adapter I can run minishells, and I know she'll run whatever I put in her. I think the magpul rifle grip stock I have on it is the best rifle grip stock period and I still have one of the old first gen surfire/Laser Co. forend lights on it. Which I haven't found a flashlight setup I like on the 940 yet. Both are pretty light but I think the cerakot on the 590 gives it a little extra weight. The 590 also holds 1-2 extra shells depending on the ammo. All and all when the zombies come and I'm out of 5.56 I'm grabbing the pump over the semi.

    Bead sights or small rifle sights 👍
    Manually repeating shot gun will last longer than any recoil spring or gas rings. Maybe Benelli M3? Else the repeating system you show. Durability and reliability is first priority - in my world

      You can go buy an a5 semi from the 60s that will still run flawlessly. Just one example. A well made semi will last you just as long if you take care of it.

    Stoeger M3000 Tactical. Stoeger is owned by Benelli. Benelli is owned by Beretta. Stoeger makes Benelli parts. M3000 tactical is an unbeatable entry level semiautomatic shotgun.

    How did you come up with your price points? Here in Vermont you can't touch a Semi auto Benelli for under 2nd grand. I paid $400 for a well used LE trade in 870 police magnum, prepandemic. Maybe the Mavric 88 cold be had for sub $300. Couldn't believe the video was made two months ago. So where can I purchase this 1000 dollar Benelli, I'm all in!

    Semi-auto shotguns are not as reliable as pump shotguns or semi-auto rifles like ARs and AKs. Semi-auto shotguns will not cycle low power bean bag rounds. Some pump shotguns can be fitted with a bayonet.
