Good, reliable, reasonably priced shotgun...
I'm looking to get one in the next couple of weeks. I dont own any shotguns and would like to get one for camping and home protection purposes... I know there are some firearms experts on here and I could use some help.
Looking to spend $500.00

Re: Good, reliable, reasonably priced shotgun...
I purchased a Charles Daly semi-auto a few years back from Walmart. I believe I paid about three hundred+ for it since it was on a big sale. Been very reliable for skeet shooting (I don't hunt). Only problem is it keeps missing those damn clay pidgeons.
You will get more recommendations....

Remington 11-87 Auto
Benelli, you would have to get a pump...$$$
Baretta Might be a bit pricey
Winchester
I would head down to a shooting range, or local store and have the guys help you out to see what fits you. Some places rent them, and let you try them out...

Re: Good, reliable, reasonably priced shotgun...
As far as reliability, I've spent a lot of money on various guns--but my favorite shotgun is still the Remington 870, which comes in a multitude of versions--the basic one is about $250 I think. I've hunted with one for 20 years, and it has never jammed once. Not sure how much the police versions go for, but here's one version:

Screw the shotgun! I've found this assortment to be very effective for camping and home protection.

No, in such an unlikely event, I could just shoot a jeeper at 700 meters and then limp home in his/her vehicle.
