^^^This right here.Beretta 1301 or the poor mans 1301...the Mossberg 930
Word to the wise, if you didn't already know this ....I live on 20 acres in the mountains outside of Sheridan and I keep some kind of firearm the buildings that I frequent the most ( glocks for the most part due to the durable polymer frame) . I'm thinking I want a scattergun to keep in my shop ...
^^^This right here.
I have Beretta 1301 that I did an entire Aridus parts upgrade with a T-1 Micro CROM, a Nordic extension, SF Dual Fuel Scout light w/ Cloud Defensive M-Lok LCS and BFG VCAS Sling. It is a serious...

Good points Bob, I'm not there yet but hope to still be living where I'm at when I reach that age and arthritis is no joke even at 53Word to the wise, if you didn't already know this ....

I'm 70 with arthritis in my neck, shoulders, lower back and hips - which biases me toward an autoloader like the Mossberg 930. I agree with others that a pump action is simpler, more reliable and generally easier to maintain.
A handgun with a weapon-mounted light, so long as it is always on your person, is always a good option especially moving between buildings in the evening. It leaves one hand free to open/shut doors and gates, grab or fend off other objects and [best of all] enable two-hand shooting.

I'm having the Nordic mag extension Cerakoted OD to match the guns so photos will have to wait a little.
I hate the 1100/1187 as a fighting gun, sporting gun...meh, maybe.Remington 1100
I have a lot of rounds through these.
And they're still competitive on the Trap range.
The NASCAR of shotgun sports.
Or if you want to get sophisticated, go with a Remington Wingmaster (not Express) or an Ithaca Featherlight.
These you'll have to find on the used market.
Both have steel receivers and are very nice guns.
Ithaca Model 37 loads from the bottom and ejects from the bottom.
With or without your blessing, the Remington 1100 is a Hall-of-Famer.I hate the 1100/1187 as a fighting gun, sporting gun...meh, maybe.
Also the 870P (or least the older ones, not sure what is going on right now.)
But the 1301 renewed my interest in serious 12ga use, I can plant round almost as fast as I can with my ARs, it is an extremely controlable weapon.
Thanks for everyone's input and suggestions, I've got some research to do before narrowing down my decision and I've got time since i just came from TJ's in Mac and am really leaning towards a like new never fired Sig 1911 .45Was just curious as your want for a semi-auto when a pump can be [almost] just as fast. As the price of pumps can save $$$ over semi-auto's too.
There are folks on both sides of "a semi is better" vs "a pump is better".
Cheers
Don't underestimate the sound of a semi racking, it's surprisingly similar.That said, I'm a big fan of pump guns! Racking a round in a Remington 870 or old Winchester model 12, has a huge scare-factor if two legged predators are in the area…
